Press Release

Issued by Adams Aviation.

March 8, 2013

McFarlane Aviation is widely known as "The Pilot's Choice" but is also the choice for the savvy engineer. Now their range of quality FAA-PMA approved parts is available direct through the new EU-based web site The Engineer's Choice.

Many aircraft owners, particularly those with Pipers or Cessnas, are aware of McFarlane Aviation and the quality and cost-savings their wide range of PMA parts offers. All too often they look enviously at the price pilots pay Stateside knowing that shipping costs can prohibit taking advantage of the lower prices - up to 60% less than the equivalent aircraft manufacturer's part. Well now - at last - those parts and those prices are available this side of the pond through The Engineer's Choice.

For the first time in Europe it's now straightforward and simple to access the full range of parts offered by McFarlane Aviation and, most importantly, at the same US-based pricing! So whether you're flying one of the popular Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft or Grumman aircraft, or yours is a more exotic home-build, then you now have access to over 2,000 different parts through The Engineer's Choice - all without having to incur excessive freight costs or an unreasonable "European premium"!.

This service is being provided by Europe's largest GA parts specialist Adams Aviation and so is backed by a reputation built up over 45 years.

"Dave McFarlane started his company over 40 years ago with a goal to bring reasonably priced replacement parts that work better, safer and last longer to all aircraft owners" said Adrian Wilson, Adams' Business Development Manager adding "So it was a natural progression for us to make sure we lived up to that goal. In the short time we have been representing McFarlane Aviation, interest from UK & European customers has been massive and, as much in response to their feedback, it was only fair that all aircraft owners had easy access to the quality, value and off-the-shelf delivery whilst enjoying that all-important price advantage."

Recognised as "Europe's trade supplier", The Engineer's Choice may seem somewhat of a departure for their business model. "Not so, it's all about choice" said Adams Aviation's Chief Executive Stephen Gosling, "our aim is to ensure that each and every one of the manufacturers we represent have their parts made available to the widest audience, in the most cost-effective way, and through the best means possible. In this case it's simply making sure the end-user isn't disadvantaged by choosing to buy from within the EU rather than being forced to have to buy from the States - and now that can mean through The Engineer's Choice or through their maintenance facility who will still enjoy their excellent trade pricing through volume purchases."

McFarlane Aviation and Adams Aviation are again exhibiting at this year's Aero in Friedrichshafen between 24th and 27th April so come along to stand A5-101 to learn more about how those light aircraft servicing problems have just become a whole lot easier - and cheaper.
