CRS plans on establishing a facility in Brazil that will be both a sales, logistics and service center supporting the aftermarket needs of Gulfstream, Challenger, Hawker, Falcon and Lear model airframes.

“The initial emphasis of the facility will be to support Securaplane power systems through sales and servicing however, the Brazilian location will increase repair capabilities based on the needs of the South American Business Aviation Community as we move forward” says CRS Owner and President Armando Leighton. “We are pleased to have support and approval of a Meggitt company in this endeavor.”

CRS has chosen Brazilian partners which was formalized at the LABACE show in August for this project that have experience in all aspects of the aerospace industry including; repair and overhaul facilities, OEM technical support, maintenance sales and operations. The International growth coincides with CRS 30^th Year Anniversary. “The Global market is our target and Brazil is a key location in supporting this region of the world” claims Jack Caloras Vice President of Sales and Business Development.
