Ibis Aerospace has quashed speculation that Taiwan’s Aerospace Industrial Development Corp. (AIDC) is preparing to withdraw its investment in the company’s Ae270 Spirit business and utility turboprop. According to Ibis marketing director Jeff Conrad, some press reports took comments by AIDC top management out of context, and he asserted that the Taiwanese entity has in fact reaffirmed its financial backing for the new single, which is being built in the Czech Republic.
