Formerly CAF Aviation Consultants and now part of the GAL Group of Ottawa, the new GAL Aviation is based in Montreal, and some 60 skilled craftsmen will occupy its 40,000-sq-ft facilities in St.-Joseph de Beauce, near Quebec City. “With key financing already in place, we feel the opportunity is there to become an important player in this niche market,” said GAL Aviation president Guy Lapierre, referring to the cabin completion and refurbishment requirements for single- and twin-aisle airliners reconfigured for executive use.
