Associated Air Center signs 90th vvip completion contract with Middle Eastern Airbus A320 customer

Associated Air Center (AAC) has signed a new, green Airbus A320CJ vvip narrow-body completion project contract with an undisclosed Middle Eastern customer on June 5. This project represents AAC's 90th vvip completion program during the company's long history in the industry.

The new A320CJ aircraft is expected to arrive at AAC's Dallas facility in mid-July, 2015 and is scheduled to be redelivered to the customer in September, 2016.

The cabin layout for the aircraft will feature a vip bedroom, private lounge, dining area, large entertainment lounge and a staff area. This aircraft will also be outfitted with a state-of-the-art cabin management system and JetWave (Ka band) Satcom system.

“This is exciting news for AAC as it demonstrates our continued leadership in the competitive market of interior completions,” said James Colleary, president of AAC. “We look forward to working to complete this project on time and within budget.”

In addition to this new project, AAC currently has two wide body projects underway in its Dallas facilities, including Boeing 748-8 and a Boeing 787. Both projects are scheduled to be completed later this year.
