Nextant Aerospace is about to deliver Europe's third remanufactured 400XT jet, to a Swiss buyer, and is targeting over 1,500 owners of light jets around the continent as potential customers.

The company believes that the combination of performance, low cost and a two-year warranty will tempt operators away from pre-owned or factory new aircraft options.

Nextant recently appointed Sean McGeough as president, and he will use his previous experience leading Hawker Beechcraft's international operations in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the Asia Pacific to develop strategies that will allow Nextant to achieve greater global market penetration and sustained growth for the Nextant 400XT.

To meet increasing demand, Nextant has expanded its capacity with a new 125,000 sq ft remanufacturing facility in Cleveland, US.
