Piper Aircraft has selected SkyTech Aero as its authorised dealer for new aircraft sales and service coordination across the northeastern United States, covering Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania.

The move builds on a long-standing relationship with John Foster and former SkyTech team members following an ownership transition in the region, creating a renewed presence for the Piper brand.

Ron Gunnarson, Piper’s vice president of sales, marketing, customer support and quality, says: “As Piper continues to strengthen its global dealer network, we are pleased to welcome SkyTech Aero and its proven customer experience team to represent Piper in this strategically important region of North America.”

John Foster of SkyTech Aero adds: “We're proud to continue our long relationship with Piper in this new chapter. Our team has always believed in the strength of the Piper's product line and the dedication of the customers who fly them. We look forward to bringing that same commitment to pilots across the northeast and helping grow Piper's presence in this dynamic aviation community.”

SkyTech Aero has established a dedicated regional team led by president Tony Sammartino, supported by aircraft sales assistant Caden Eversole and an administrative team.

Maintenance support is being extended through approved service centres at Shoreline Aviation in Marshfield, Massachusetts and Northeast Air in Portland, Maine, strengthening coverage for aircraft owners across the region.
