Textron Aviation has designated Gama Aviation as its authorized sales representative for special mission aircraft in the UK and Ireland. The announcement was made last week at the Royal International Air Tattoo airshow. This authorization builds on Textron Aviation’s longstanding partnership with UK-based Gama and covers special mission variants of the entire portfolio of Cessna and Beechcraft aircraft.
“As a long-term design, embodiment, maintainer, and operator of Textron Aviation platforms for air ambulance and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance [ISR] missions, we feel ideally placed to advise end users and operators of the art of the possible in their special-missions configuration,” said Mark Smith, managing director of special missions at Gama Aviation.
Under this authorization, Gama Aviation can work with customers on their total needs—from developing requirements to offering turnkey missionized aircraft and full in-country support.
