" "The Skylander is particularly well suited to our regional transport needs," adds Yusuf Ardhi Boediono, Chairman of PT SKY Aviation, "it will be an invaluable support in developing the company in new markets". Firm orders for Trans Asia in Malaysia: 8 firm orders and 4 options The Malaysian Transasia Resources company, represented by its Chairman Dato HI Mazlan bin Hi Nasiron, signed an order for 8 Skylander SK-105, with an option for four additional aircraft. The operator will use these aircraft for charter transport in the service of travel organisers in the islands of this region, in Thailand, in Indonesia, in the East of Malaysia and in Borneo.

This order marks the entry of the Skylander into the Asian market, to which it is perfectly suited. Other highlights for this day, The visit to the GECI International stand by a delegation from the French Ministry of Defence led by Monsieur Gérard Longuet, Minister of Defence, who has supported the Skylander programme since its installation in Lorraine and who has reiterated his support. The Minister, a pilot, particularly appreciated the very modern aircraft cockpit with ergonomics particularly designed for the comfort and safety of the crew. The Skylander, an aircraft with exceptional performance Modern, robust and simple, the Skylander SK-105 is a twin turboprop aircraft, dedicated to regional passenger and freight transport, medical evacuation, or a mission aircraft role. The Skylander responds to the needs of companies operating in difficult terrain with limited infrastructure. Its modernity, its performances, very advantageous price, and low operating costs give it a significant competitive advantage in a category where ageing aircraft are being reindustrialised and do not respond to the market's needs. A new generation aircraft, the Skylander aims to be the heir to legendary aircraft like the Broussard or DC-3, capable of transporting 19 passengers or 2.7 tonnes of freight and operating in extreme temperature and altitude conditions, on airports as well as short basic runways. Developed by Sky Aircraft, a GECI Aviation subsidiary, the SK-105 will make its first flight during the first half of 2012, for certification twelve months later followed by deliveries. Over 1,500 Skylander aircraft will leave the Sky Aircraft assembly lines between 2013 and 2030.
