Saarbrücken-based Cirrus Aviation has launched a subsidiary in the UK. As part of the Cirrus Group, the firm has access to some 50 aircraft, including two Challenger 604s, two Learjet 60s, two LR40s and Dornier 328s, and says these will be joined by two ultra-long range Global 5000s, a Global XRS and an Embraer Legacy in the coming months.

“By expanding our operation into the UK and Ireland, we will be closer to our customers and able to deliver a more effective customer service,” commented Benjamin Leon, coo of Cirrus Aviation UK.

Cirrus Aviation md Stefan Buschle added: “We see an increased demand for new aircraft and the creation of our London base is a strategic move, designed to ensure we can offer the very best to our clients.”
