Vector Aerospace announces transition of Breeze Eastern product support
Source: verticalmag.com
 Vector Aerospace Corporation (Vector-TSX: RNO) wishes to inform its customers and affected operators that they once again have a Canadian support alternative for Breeze Eastern Corporation products.
In 2008 Vector elected not to renew its license as the Canadian agent for the Breeze Eastern Corporation and, upon fulfillment of its customer obligations, discontinued repair and overhaul support services for Breeze Eastern rescue hoists, personnel hoist products and winch assemblies. In assisting current and prospective operators of Breeze Eastern products, Vector advises that GASTOPS Limited of Burnside, Nova Scotia is now the exclusive Breeze Eastern agent for service, repair, and overhaul for all Canadian Government agencies within Canada, and those deployed outside Canada.
John MacDougall, Senior Vice President-Sales & Marketing for Vector Aerospace Corporation explains the decision to discontinue support for the Breeze Eastern product was made as part of Vector's ongoing strategic initiative to intensifying its focus on the company's core capabilities of engines, dynamic components, airframes and avionics while offering its customers the highest level of quality and customer-satisfaction available in the aviation maintenance, repair and overhaul market.
MacDougall emphasizes that Vector continues to offer world-class support across its traditional core product lines including: Rolls Royce, Pratt & Whitney Canada, General Electric and Turbomeca engines; Bell, Sikorsky, Eurocopter, AgustaWestland and Boeing dynamic components, structures and avionics.
As one of the largest independent MRO service providers in the world with more than 2,500 employees, Vector offers an extensive range of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)-approved services from locations across the globe. The company has 14 state-of-the-art repair and overhaul operations in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom
and Africa serving a global customer base consisting of private and commercial operators, government agencies, defense departments and OEMs.
