Canada-based Flying Colours, a specialist in the completion and refurbishment of Bombardier aircraft, is highlighting the company’s ability to service clients in Europe, underscored by recent facility expansion at home and successes in Asia. “We’re getting more inquiries from Europe for heavy refurbishment and maintenance,” said Eric Gillespie, executive v-p of sales and marketing.
Flying Colours (Booth 1646) recently completed the first of a three-phase, 65,000-sq-ft expansion at its Peterborough, Ontario headquarters, opening a $3.5-million, 20,000-sq-ft hangar expansion in March and upgrading its paint facility with a $750,000 investment in April. Halfway around the world, Flying Colours recently partnered with Bombardier to provide interior support and refurbishment at the new Bombardier service center in Singapore, and the company is in the process of setting up and staffing the facility. Meanwhile, under its Preferred Completion Center agreement with Bombardier, Flying Colours has delivered numerous Challenger 850 completions around the globe over the past three years and is currently performing green Challenger completions for several Asia-based clients.
