In line with the company's continued focus on the international market, Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (HBC) today launched its new Portuguese language website during the ninth annual Latin American Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition (LABACE) at Congonhas Airport in São Paulo.

Available at www.pt.hawkerbeechcraft.com or from the home page of the corporate website, the Portuguese language website mirrors the company's English language website. The Portuguese site is the third in a series of language translations the company is making, following the improved Chinese and Spanish websites that were launched last year.

HBC's websites include the same wide range of interactive and special features. Among the highlights:

• 360-degree virtual flight: Customers are treated to an interactive view of the aircraft in flight.

• Aircraft comparison tool: Customers can decide which HBC aircraft will best fit their needs by comparing models according to key specifications like performance, range and seat configurations.

• Color selection tool: Customers can browse through a variety of color samples and designs and select their own interior fabrics and exterior paint schemes from this interactive tool.
