Lee Kelsey, Farsound’s Group Sales Director, said: “We are creating something within the aero engine MRO sector that others are not. We strongly believe in giving customers a choice and bring passion and a new dynamic to the sector. We strive for excellence in this dynamic and challenging environment and believe in our people to make this happen.

"We push the boundaries as we continue to grow and break new ground, developing innovative and novel solutions. We understand our customers’ needs and that there is not a ‘one size fits all’ solution.”

Farsound says it puts people at its heart, with a knowledgeable team who genuinely care about what they are delivering and the people they are delivering to, offering a more personal service and commitment to providing the industry with something better through wider choice.

The Farsound team will be showcasing their new brand at a number of international aviation exhibitions including next week's Dubai Airshow and Aero Engines Europe in Norway.
