Vallair, the mature aircraft asset specialist and launch customer of the A321P2F freighter conversion, has appointed Steve Pike as Aerostructures & MRO services sales manager. Pike will be based in Vallair’s EASA and FAA approved repair facility in Châteauroux, France. His role will be to act as the main interface with operators, lessors, aviation parts stockists and suppliers of aviation parts for all Vallair’s MRO services, but also specifically for Vallair’s Aerostructures workshop.
“I am delighted to join Vallair and to have the opportunity to work with the skilled, dedicated teams at Châteauroux and Montpellier,” says Pike. “With a background in aerospace engineering I have extensive experience within the aviation sector including commercial MRO, maintenance and modification. I look forward to drawing on my understanding of working closely with the major OEMs and operators of Boeing, Airbus and ATR - to strengthen and focus Vallair’s Aerostructures & MRO services for our airline and lessor customers.”
Pike previously worked at Skyways Technics as head of maintenance sales, and Flybe Aviation Services as head of commercial sales.
