Pacific AirHub celebrates successful first year
On its first birthday, aircraft sales company Pacific AirHub, with a physical presence in New Zealand, Australia and Africa, is reflecting on the year and celebrating its successes in spite of the impact of Covid
The team have been faced with the challenges of Covid-19, and its impact on global markets and the aviation space. However, the past year has seen Pacific AirHub succeeding beyond expectation.
Beyond helicopter and parts sales, their services include pre-purchase inspections, aircraft valuation and shipping and logistics. The company started in New Zealand and have since expanded its physical presence into Australia and Africa.
Adapting to Covid-19
Their year of triumphs do not end at the 20 helicopters sold benchmark. In the case of the Sheriff AS350 B2, formerly owned by the Fayette County Sheriff Department as an airborne law enforcement platform, the Pacific AirHub team managed the entire sales and purchase process to its new private owner. They led the comprehensive pre-purchase inspection, conducted detailed video walkthroughs of the aircraft for the buyer, and streamlined the logistics of packing and shipping of this helicopter.
The company rapidly evolved their operations to cater for the unique and challenging pressures and demands that Covid-19 has put on the industry. They have pivoted to effectively integrating PPIs into their offerings, and have streamlined video inspections as the new normal.
