Tropical Aviation Distributors is part of Africair, the highly
regarded and well-known Thrush dealer for Africa. This new
distributorship, along with several others soon to be announced,
are part of a strategic worldwide growth plan for Thrush, which
focuses on facilitating easy access to the company’s products
in their customers' own language and region.
Payne Hughes, president of Thrush Aircraft, stated:
“Africair has successfully organized and developed the
African market for Thrush Aircraft since becoming our distributor
there. I’m very pleased to expand their territory at this
time, and all of us here in Albany look forward to working
with them in this vibrant region. Our expanding distributor network
is a direct reflection of our growing market share around the
world, and our dedication to supporting our customers, and their
aircraft, wherever they fly.”
Jim Evans, CEO of Africair/TAD stated: “We are very
excited about the expansion of our area of representation for
Thrush. TAD has long standing relationships with many of the
agricultural spray operators in the Caribbean and South America,
and we look forward to further supporting the industry as
Thrush’s sales representatives. Juan J. Phillips will head up
our activities in the regions, and he is known throughout the
industry as an expert in agricultural aircraft. As Thrush
Aircraft’s representatives, we have committed ourselves to
providing superior service, competitive pricing, and world class
