Friedrichshafen, Ger. (April 19, 2023) – Textron Aviation is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its Zurich and Düsseldorf Service Centers joining its global customer support network. Employees marked the milestone anniversary with celebrations at each location earlier this month.
Beechcraft, Cessna and Hawker customers receive factory-direct support, maintenance and modifications by Textron Aviation Inc., a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, through a global network of service and part centers, mobile service units and 24/7 1CALL AOG support.
Located at Zurich Airport (ZRH) in Switzerland and Düsseldorf International Airport (DUH) in Germany, the service centers are part of the company’s extensive global service network designed to support customers wherever they are in the world.

Today, the company operates a total of five service centers, three line stations, mobile service units and a parts distribution center in the region.

Textron Aviation has consistently increased its customer support in Europe over the past year. In addition to adding a dedicated mobile service location in Madrid, Spain, the company grew the regional customer support organization by adding localized 1CALL and warranty teams to serve customers. The company also expanded the European parts distribution facility by 4,000 cubic feet to increase parts availability and prioritize placing high-demand parts in the region.
