Universal Aviation in Singapore Highlights Services at Growing Singapore Airshow 2008

Singapore (Feb. 18, 2008) – Universal Aviation in Singapore has enhanced its presence this year at the Singapore Airshow 2008 in response to the show's continued growth as one of the top tradeshows in Asia. Universal Aviation(sm) in Singapore will be located in Exhibit S99 at the Singapore Airshow 2008, Feb. 19-24 at the Changi Exposition Centre in Singapore.

"The Singapore Airshow is an important and unique show in that it brings together both Asia's civil and military aviation industries in the region in one location," said Lex den Herder, Universal Aviation(sm), Regional Director, Asia-Pacific. "With so much of the Asian aviation community represented, we felt it was important to expand the presence of our Singapore location, as well as our other Universal Aviation(sm) ground support locations in the region, at the show. This year our presence is special because we will not only be able to educate Asia-based aviation operators on all of our core services and growing presence in the region, but we will also be able to provide a first-hand demonstration of the first-class ground-handling capability of our Universal Aviation(sm) location in Singapore, which was selected to provide ground handling for participants in the show's static display."

"We will work to ensure all trips are running smoothly by responding promptly to new requests and outstanding issues, and anticipating static display participants' needs," said Yvonne Chan, Managing Director, Universal Aviation(sm) in Singapore. "We go through a client's trip details many times to ensure everything is in place. Our Operations Coordinators are committed to facilitating a smooth trip for our clients by being flexible, responsive, responsible and success-motivated."
