“Guests and participants at the Singapore Airshow have varying objectives, but a key purpose of any airshow is to provide aviation professionals and enthusiasts the opportunity to learn first-hand how an aircraft looks and feels and what it is capable of,” said John Riggir, general manager of Jet Aviation's MRO and FBO facility in Singapore and vice president of the company's operations in Asia. “Whether one is buying or selling, a Customer Demonstration Flight provides a very tactile experience of the aircraft, which can leave a lasting impression. This is the second time Experia Events has honored Jet Aviation by appointing us the exclusive handler for these often decisive trial flights.”

Experia Events Managing Director Mr. Leck Chet Lam, said, “We have worked with Jet Aviation for many years and appreciate their seamless customer handling.
