Podcast: How RBI Hawker is innovating in APAC

Hawker Pacific is one of the leading aircraft sales and support companies in APAC, and one of the largest independent companies of its type in the region, with 800 employees.

In this special episode of the Australian Aviation podcast, host Phil Tarrant talks to the business’ vice president, Ian D’Arcy, about RBI Hawker, a collaboration between Hawker and Bell that specialises in rotor blade repair.

D’Arcy talks about the plan to bring a true home base to Australia after 15 years’ experience in Dubai while looking at launching satellite operations in countries such as Papua New Guinea. He also talks through the challenges and opportunities, and how the market is changing.
