The launch customer for the
ACJ320neo, Acropolis Aviation, is enhancing its bespoke aviation services
with the addition of this VVIP aircraft. Building on the success of its
existing Airbus ACJ319, the ACJ320neo will provide additional range via new
high-efficiency engines and the addition of drag-reducing sharklets.
Acropolis Aviation, based at
Farnborough Airport, UK, selected the well-known design studio Alberto
Pinto for the bespoke interior design of its ACJ320neo last May 2016,
also coinciding with EBACE.
The green delivered aircraft will enter AMAC’s
hangar doors in Q4, 2018 and will be returned to service to Acropolis
Aviation in VVIP configuration in Q4, 2019.
“With great pleasure, we have
signed this completion contract with Airbus Corporate Jet’s launch customer,
Acropolis Aviation, as one of the world’s leading private aviation
operators, in our 10th anniversary year. This new completion project is
based on the excellent reputation that AMAC has gained in the market which
we continuously demonstrated over the last 19 VIP/ VVIP and refurbishment/
modification projects at AMAC Aerospace,” said
Bernd Schramm,
Group Chief Operating Officer, AMAC Aerospace.
Acropolis Aviation selected
AMAC Aerospace following an extensive and competitive six-month long tender
process. |
