Press Release

For the past eight years, Robinson Aircraft Interiors has operated from its suburban warehouse manufacturing location in Coppell, Texas. Early this year, the company decided to make a big move by upgrading its physical location as well as changing their name. In July, the company's president, Jeff Robinson, announced that it had formed a parent company, Robinson Aerospace, under which Robinson Aircraft Interiors and other stand-alone entities could operate and support overall operations.

The second and simultaneous announcement, was a dramatic relocation from its then "landlocked" location in Coppell, Texas to Alliance Airport in Fort Worth. This move and the formation of a parent company illustrate Robinson's emboldened approach to expansion, in order to serve its customers better and offer a broader range of services. "Now with the ability to serve our customers from a major airport location," says Robinson, "we can truly realize our longstanding goal of becoming a turnkey U.S. completion and MRO center." Now offering complete green and retrofit completion services, full MRO, upholstery, veneer replacement, cockpit refresh and host of other well honed disciplines, Robinson is poised to be a formidable force in the interiors space. Fort Worth's central U.S. location also allows Robinson to better serve its customers with easy geographic accessibility and the space for expansion, as demand warrants.

Robinson's new facility rests on the airport's east side immediately adjacent the iconic control tower and sports more than 217,000 sq. ft of state of the art offices, conference suites, design showrooms, climate controlled hangars and integrated back-shops. Mark Robinson, the company's VP of operations said, "Our current hangars predominately accommodate bizjets, with fourteen available bays for top-tier jets like the Global Express, Challeger 604, Falcon 7X, etc., with all the required on-site support shops and expertise to handle everything from a simple maintenance check or interior refresh to full interior retrofits and major MRO services."

Robinson says, they will also continue to handle larger VVIP interior projects (both narrow and wide body), in the same manner as before. "If the demand is such that warrants it," says Mr. Robinson, "we will expand our hangar complex to accommodate the larger airframes."

Robinson's first aircraft at the new location, a Challenger 604, was completed and re-delivered at the beginning of September, only days after formally opening its doors. The 604 underwent a limited interior refresh and a 12/24 month inspection. "The aircraft was delivered on-time and in budget", says Mark Robinson.
