Fokker Techniek (Booth H2401) announced at ABACE 2018 it has been awarded a contract from long-term customer K5-Aviation to perform the first VIP completion on an ACJ319neo. The project is slated to commence in May 2019 and be ready for delivery at the beginning of 2020. The cabin will include the latest communication, in-flight entertainment, and other technologies, while a focus on weight reduction will enhance the aircraft’s range and payload.
Jeff Armitage, managing director of the Netherlands-based Fokker Techniek, said it is “a privilege that K5 selected our engineering and completion once more.”
Luca Madone of Germany-based K5-Aviation called the contract award “a logical continuation of the existing relationship both companies have from previous projects,” adding, “We believe Fokker will deliver again on time and according to our highest expectations.”
