Global Trek certified for Gulfstream support
In the short time since doors were opened at the Global Trek Aviation Cardiff FBO, the team has completed its training and certification to line support Gulfstream mid and large cabin models.
The Global Trek Aviation Cardiff team celebrates the completion of its Gulfstream line support training.

The Global Trek Aviation team at Cardiff International airport recently celebrated a proud moment when it accepted two plaques in recognition of being fully trained and certified to line support Gulfstream's mid cabin and large cabin models.

All training was completed in conjunction with MyGulfstream.com and FlightSafety International. Global Trek Aviation says it is one of only two companies throughout the entire UK to boast this accolade.

Global Trek Aviation opened the doors to its second VIP executive jet centre at Cardiff at the beginning of May and it is starting to reap the benefits, as no VIP facility like this has ever been in existence at the airport before. The FBO offers 24/7 full service with in-house ground support equipment to support any sized aircraft, and an in-house Jet A1 fuelling service. Inside there is a large comfortable VIP lounge, fully integrated kitchen and coffee bar, in-house security office, large ops room, large crew briefing/crew resting facilities with multiple fixed internet workstations and printers, multiple wall mounted large HD-TVs, VIP reception, ECO air conditioning/climate control system, separate wi-fi connections for crew and passengers with a built in firewall, high tech 24/7 CCTV system and customer parking.
