Company Expects Approval For New Baron G58 In Time For
Delivery
At last week's EBACE 2008 convention in Geneva, Hawker
Beechcraft announced the first Beechcraft Baron G58 order from a
European customer who will register the aircraft in Europe with
European Aviation Safety Authority (EASA) certification. HBC
expects to receive validation by EASA in the near future, allowing
customer Artur Przygoda of Poland to receive the Baron G58 on his
delivery date in October of this year.
There has been an incredible interest in Europe for the
Beechcraft Baron G58 and Beechcraft Bonanza G36, fully IFR equipped
with Garmin G1000 avionics and GFC700 integrated flight control
systems. The piston twin also features the new GWX 68 color weather
radar and offers optional Jeppesen chart coverage for Europe and
other worldwide regions. The combined package provides improved
situational awareness, increased functionality, and reduced pilot
workload.
"We're pleased to have Mr. Przygoda as our first EASA-certified
Baron customer in Poland,"" said Sean McGeough, vice president,
International Sales. "As the owner of several other Hawker
Beechcraft products, including the third Beechcraft King Air B200GT
we delivered, he is a true Beechcraft enthusiast."
Hawker Beechcraft had a Baron G58 on display at EBACE, a new
demo aircraft to be used exclusively in Europe. To support the
anticipated increase in European piston sales, Hawker Beechcraft
also recently added a dedicated piston sales person, Chris Hancock,
to the European region sales team. He is based in Chester, U.K.
