In his new role, Matt Davies (above) is overseeing all Farnborough Service Centre operations and leading the team in delivering UK services. He will ensure that customers and operators visiting Gulfstream’s UK facility continue to receive safe and reliable support.
“Matt’s extensive experience and leadership make him an excellent addition to our Farnborough team and an important resource for our UK and regional customers,” said Lor Izzard, senior vice president, Gulfstream Customer Support. “He will play a key role in continuing to deliver the quality of service and customer experience that define Gulfstream’s worldwide support network.”
Davies brings nearly 30 years of aviation experience, much of it with Airinmar, an AAR company that specialises in management services of aircraft and component maintenance for airlines, airframe manufacturers and maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) organisations. He most recently served as general manager at Airinmar following a series of positions with increasing responsibility.
Additionally, Davies has held roles with Honeywell Aerospace and GE Aircraft Engine Services and is a member of the Royal Aeronautical Society.
The Farnborough Service Centre is one of Gulfstream’s most modern and sustainable facilities. The 225,000-square-foot/20,903-square-metre facility opened in 2020 and can accommodate up to 13 of Gulfstream’s larger aircraft. It is accessible to Gulfstream’s newly redesigned London Sales and Design Centre in Mayfair, which adds additional in-region support for customers by offering exclusive access to Gulfstream’s London-based sales executives and interior design team.
Gulfstream’s next-generation family of aircraft, include the super-midsize Gulfstream G300, the category-leading Gulfstream G400, the award-winning Gulfstream G500 and Gulfstream G600, the ultralarge-cabin Gulfstream G700 and the ultralong-range Gulfstream G800.
