Texas Aviation Services and Sierra Aeronautica Deliver Agusta 109E to Brazil

SAO PAULO, BRAZIL -- Texas Aviation Services (TAS), along with its in-country partner Sierra Aeronautica, announces the delivery of an executive Agusta 109E Power to Sao Paulo, Brazil.

TAS recently delivered its’ second Agusta 109E to Sao Paulo after paint, interior, and avionics upgrades were completed. Prior to the aircraft’s departure, the TAS Brazilian Repair Station was graded 10 out of 10 by the Brazilian Civil Aviation Authority on the conformity inspection.

Texas Aviation retrofitted the new Agusta 109E with multiple Garmin 430W’s, a GMX-200 with Chartview, Skywatch HP and a redesigned Instrument Panel engineered by the TAS staff. The six passenger seats were covered with high-end leather and the crew and passenger areas were covered with carpet and Ultra-Leather. Door activated dome lights with soft dim were installed along with Tinted Dual Windows STC’d by TAS. The Dual Windows came with additional soundproofing to decrease interior sounds considerably, conveniently allowing passengers to communicate without headsets. To finish, the TAS team installed Whelen exterior LED lights and applied a mirror finish paint scheme.

"We aren’t slowing down; TAS continues to push out executive completions that re-define the industry’s standards," says Michael Bashlor, President of TAS.

"This aircraft was the second completion for this particular customer, and we continue to surpass their expectations," says Marcos Braga, CEO of Sierra Aeronautica. "2009 should be a record year for us together in Brazil."
