Bizav in Asia: Hawker Beechcraft Builds New Asian Team
Hawker Beechcraft is establishing a new sales and customer support team in this part of the world.

Hawker Beechcraft is establishing a new sales and customer support team in this part of the world. The U.S. manufacturer has recruited former Asia Jet CEO Justin Firestone as its new president for the AsiaPacific region. Firestone will continue to be based in Hong Kong and will lead a network of staff extending in Beijing, Singapore and Australia.

Prior to his time with Asia Jet, Firestone was a senior executive with block charter and fractional ownership provider Marquis Jet. He reports directly to Hawker Beechcraft executive president Shawn Vick, with a mandate to boost the company’s market share in Asia.
The U.S. manufacturer is supporting its strengthened Asia-Pacific sales force by dispatching three new demonstrator aircraft to the region: a Hawker 4000, a 900, a Premier IA and a King Air 350i will be available to prospective customers for extended periods.
