The easyWay to SafetyAVISA have recently been invited to work on yet another contract for easyJet. In a recent testimonial, Jorgen Orstam, Technical Director and Head of Engineering at easyJet, explained why AVISA is a contractor of choice for them:
I started working with AVISA when I joined easyJet in November 2007. Based on various recommendations, Justin Goatcher, AVISA’s MD, had been invited to work with easyJet on some of our projects.
Within a short time, Justin and his AVISA colleagues impressed me. I appreciate their professionalism, their general understanding of the aviation industry, of engineering organisations in particular, and their extensive knowledge of regulations.
In addition to working on the standard contract, we used AVISA as consultants to advise in areas where we had doubts about the best way of meeting compliance.
AVISA worked with us on the revision to our technical manuals for the GB Airways integration project. It was key that all of the documentation etc was totally up to date for our inspection. Any problems could obviously lead to easyJet being faced with high unexpected cost when aircraft had to be handed back Lessors, so AVISA’s competence protects easyJet from potential business risk.
On a personal level, we had a great working relationship with all of the AVISA representatives. They fitted in with our teams brilliantly and everyone has only ever had positive things to say about them.
AVISA are a good commercial partner for easyJet, and I look forward to our partnership continuing into the future as we prepare for the challenges of increasing easyJet’s fleet size.
AVISA Eastern EuropeAVISA is proud to announce its continued global expansion. We are now a major presence in Eastern Europe and have recently opened our office in Sofia, Bulgaria.
Our most recent local client is Business Air, the private operator based at Plovdiv airport. Taking advantage of the rapid expansion of Bulgaria’s Business Jet Market, Business Air have acquired two additional Cessna Citation 550 aircraft.
AVISA is working closely to support Business Air with the provision of Continuous Airworthiness Management Organisation (CAMO) services.
Steve Bentley is the Senior Consultant in the Sofia office. He commented that “Sofia is an ideal location to support the development of Aviation Support activities in Eastern Europe, both geographically and economically. With a recent reduction of corporate and personal tax to just 10%, it shows a very progressive attitude to business development.
