Piper Aircraft has extended a partnership through which Boeing will continue as its exclusive distributor of aviation components and parts for the next five years. Under the agreement announced last week at EAA AirVenture, Boeing will manage the distribution of critical parts for Piper general aviation aircraft to the U.S. manufacturer’s global customer base.

Boeing currently maintains more than $22 million of Piper parts inventory and has achieved a fill rate of more than 98% on forecasted parts, meaning that customers’ orders are fulfilled immediately from available stock.
