Adams Aviation has been acquired by global aerospace and defence industry expert Pattonair.

Adams Aviation is pleased to announce that, from 1 st  September, they became part of the Pattonair Group, the world’s largest independent aircraft parts supplier!  
This exciting strategic alliance will help continue Adams’ growth, extend its geographical reach and propel it into the future.
Stephen Gosling, Adams Aviation’s CEO said:
“ Pattonair’s customer-focus, ambition and global reach add exponentially to Adams’ long-standing mission of getting aircraft where they should be; back in the air. As we discussed the transaction it became increasingly apparent that the ethos of both companies is very alike in that we both put customer service first, whether that be customers, suppliers or staff. All three are key and treating them as second to none, vital for our success.
The Adams team is very rightly envied across our industry and Frank, Anika, Neil and I, as owners, have all been proud to have contributed to that team for decades. We will be staying on to aid the transition to the new ownership and are absolutely sure that Adams’ future is very bright indeed.”
The new agreement is seen as a mutually beneficial move for both companies, as Pattonair CEO Wayne Hollinshead explained: 
“ At Pattonair we have a strong history in the aerospace industry and we are delighted to be further strengthening our position in the market. This deal presents us with new opportunities for growth. It also gives Adams significant opportunities to grow into both Asia and North America, given our wide presence in these regions .”  
At Adams, we see this as tremendously positive. If you, as one of our valued customers or suppliers, have any concerns or, far more likely, see opportunities to further our relationship and increase business together please do contact us at any time!
