- The PFA Rally - Cranfield, UK

Thanks to all those who visited our Partner Centre at Cranfield.  The range of engines we had on display brought home the point that CITEC is a modular family which will power a range of GA aircraft for decades to come.  The three installations on display showed the simplicity of installing offered by the WAM-120 integrated package. 

We took engine bookings as well as expressions of interest in our equity sale.  It was great to catch up with so many of our valued customers.  I hope that those who visited enjoyed meeting the team members.

A few words on Cranfield from TONY CLARRY (Tony holds WAM120 Engine Deposit  No. 6 for Glastar "G-CTEC") Thanks Tony for helping on our stand at Cranfield so tirelessly.
