Denmark's CAM Aviation A/S, which specialises in maintaining and servicing smaller aircraft, has invested to expand its capabilities to aircraft including the Beechjet/ Hawker 400.

Per Brogård, financial, sales and marketing manager says: "Maintenance and general back-up for small business aircraft has developed a great deal and will develop more in the next few years regardless of the economic recession we experience at present."

He adds: "This is making demands on companies for service and personnel." CAM Aviation is an authorised service centre for companies including Hawker Beechcraft, Raisbeck, Rockwell Collins, Honeywell and Garmin. Brogård  says: "We are in close contact with the factories and manufacturers in the United States, which ensures that we here in Europe can provide the best service to our customers. It also ensures that the aircraft owners and operators get the back-up they deserve."

CAM Aviation, based at Copenhagen Roskilde, services and maintains aircraft including the Beechcraft 200 and Beechcraft 1900, Citations and PC-12 as well as the Beechjet/Hawker 400.  Brogård says that many operators are looking at repairing, modifying or installing new equipment in their aircraft rather than buying new in a time of recession.
