Action Aviation Offers AirGlide Coatings

Action Aviation has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with AirGlide, a UK company, which claims that its new Aviation Shield nano-technology coating can result in aircraft fuel-burn savings of around 4 percent through drag reduction of up to 40 percent. Nano particles fill all the microscopic gaps and crevices in the aircraft skin surface.

“In today’s world of high fuel costs and emphasis on carbon emissions we are particularly focusing the Aviation Shield coating on the worldwide airline market, where fuel savings such as these can make all the difference to airline profit margins,” said Hamish Harding, chairman of Action Aviation.
