EASA Approves Winglet-Modified Converted Freighters and Combis from Precision Aircraft Solutions

BEAVERTON, Ore. (July 31, 2014) – Precision Aircraft Solutions has just received approval from EASA to convert 757-200 passenger aircraft with winglets to freighter and combi configurations. The authorization allows European customers to benefit from the significant fuel savings and enhanced payload capacity derived from Precision’s winglet-compatible conversions.

Precision President Gary Warner stated: “Keeping ahead of what our customers require continues to be a main priority for Precision. We are pleased to now offer our European partners the advantages of our winglet compatible freighters.”

Precision’s most recent conversion product, a 15-pallet winglet-modified 757-200, as well as its forerunner, a non-winglet-modified 15-pallet 757-200 converted freighter, are both the only of their kind in the world.

This EASA approval is Precision’s first since restructuring earlier this year. Today with five subsidiaries, Precision provides comprehensive aircraft modification services and support while continuing to pioneer its signature aircraft conversion program.
