West Star Aviation specialises in the repair and maintenance of airframes, engines, APUs and avionics. Having accomplished salespeople on board is key, and Mid-Atlantic-based Robbie Johnson is just the man.
Robbie Johnson is delighted with the opportunity to advance his career.

West Star has welcomed Robbie Johnson as regional sales manager in the Mid-Atlantic sales territory. Equipped with more than 22 years of aviation experience as a maintenance technician and programme manager with previous positions held at Falcon, MBNA Aviation and Dawn Aero, Johnson has also received his A&P licence from the Aviation Institute of Maintenance in Philadelphia.

“We are excited to welcome Robbie to the West Star family. His many years of aviation maintenance experience will benefit our customers by providing the highest quality sales and service in the region,” comments VP of sales Marty Rhine.
