Honeywell Aerospace and Australia’s JetCity Engineering strengthened their long-standing relationship by signing a dealership agreement under which JetCity will provide support to Honeywell’s customers throughout Asia Pacific, carrying out avionics maintenance. 
JetCity will also perform equipment upgrades and line maintenance equipment sales, according to Honeywell (Booth P122). “Because we are a partner to Honeywell, operators benefit from access to Honeywell’s aftermarket services closer to home or flight destination, reducing cost and time while increasing the ease of fleet maintenance,” said JetCity managing director Lorne Cole. 
In addition to its maintenance repair and overhaul activity, JetCity operates the sole FBO at Melbourne Tullamarine International Airport in Australia, and also has a base at Essendon Airport. JetCity Engineering, a subsidiary of a larger company that also provides charter jet services, services approximately 350 business aircraft per year.
Honeywell’s service network in the Asia Pacific region consists of 43 dealers and service centers, supporting more than 850 business aircraft.
Deer Jet Signs for HAPP
Separately, Honeywell Aerospace signed new three-year contracts with business jet operator Deer Jet, enrolling three Gulfstreams in the Honeywell Avionics Protection Plan (HAPP). Designed to minimize downtime and long-term costs, HAPP is an extended warranty program for Honeywell avionics. 
Operators can enroll in HAPP with no buy-in fees, regardless of the age of their aircraft, and pricing is based on flight hours, aircraft type and the equipment installed. The program covers any product maintained in the spares and exchange pool, no matter how long it has been out of warranty. Special pricing is available for fleet operators.
HAPP is supported by more than 600 authorized sales and service centers around the world, including Deer Jet, which is authorized to maintain, install and upgrade Honeywell avionics in Asia Pacific. Honeywell also offers a Mechanical Protection Plan, which similarly covers Honeywell environment and pressure control systems.
