Piper expands key western US dealer partnerships
Piper Aircraft is growing product lines, customer services and business opportunities for three independent dealer partners. The restructuring will enhance Piper's customer experience throughout the southeastern US.

Piper Aircraft has realigned and expanded the sales and service territories for three key, independent Piper dealer partners located in the western US: Cutter Aviation; KCAC Aviation; and Western Aircraft.

Continuing a relationship that spans for more than two decades, first as a sales and service centre for Piper Aircraft in Texas and later in southern California and Hawaii, Cutter Aviation now provides experienced sales and maintenance in New Mexico, where the company was founded and Arizona, home of Cutter Aviation's corporate headquarters.

“We are very proud and excited to be able to represent the great Piper line of products in the states of Arizona and New Mexico,” says president and CEO Will Cutter. “Our longstanding relationship and experience with Piper Aircraft will bring great benefits to existing and new aircraft owners in this region.”

KCAC Aviation's territory, which included Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma, has been expanded to incorporate the state of Colorado. KCAC Aviation has been a Piper dealer for nearly 53 years.

Boise, Idaho-based Western Aircraft previously managed a territory that included Idaho, Montana, northern California, Oregon, and Washington. Its region will now also include Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming. Western Aircraft has been a Piper dealer for more than eight years.

“With an eye to the future we are growing our product lines, our customer services and the business opportunities for proven dealer partners,” adds Piper vice president of sales, marketing and customer support Ron Gunnarson. “With those common goals, we are delighted to expand Cutter Aviation's, KCAC Aviation's and Western Aircraft's territories to service our mutual customer's needs.”
