SUPERFORM DEVELOPS NEW PRODUCTS FOR THE VLJ MARKET

1 June 2007

Very Light Jets (VLJs) are projected to change the face of commercial aviation and Superform is ideally placed to supply components to this new growth segment. Superform US based in Riverside, California is already producing Lipskins, and other components, for this expanding market.

Projects under way include the Embraer Phenom 100, the Grob G-180 aircraft as well as the Eclipse VLJ, a lip skin programme that began at Superform Aluminium in the UK, and then transferred to Riverside, to be closer to the West Coast customer.

The photograph shows superformed components supplied by Riverside to the Grob G-180 aircraft.
