Hartzell Propeller appointed Ruag Aviation in Lodrino, Switzerland, as a recommended service facility. The EASA- and FAA-approved repair station covers a wide area of central Europe and offers MRO capabilities for the Piaggio P.180 and Pilatus airplanes equipped with Hartzell props. Ruag is also a service center for a number of aircraft manufacturers, including Cirrus, Mooney, Piper and Textron Aviation.

"We have been overhauling Hartzell propellers for years and Ruag Aviation is greatly honored to be awarded the Hartzell recommended service facility status," said Max Grob, who heads Ruag Aviation's business development. "The synergies between the aircraft OEMs and Hartzell are obvious and this latest recognition strengthens our market position significantly."

Ruag Aviation is Hartzell Propeller's 23rd recommended service facility.
