Libya's leading business aviation company takes delivery of first Learjet

The aircraft was officially handed over from the Bombardier factory in Wichita last week and made the flight across the Atlantic in time for the arrival today.

The company has an all-Bombardier fleet after divesting itself of Dassault Falcon and Antonov aircraft over the past two years.

The current fleet includes a Global 5000, Challenger 850 and a Challenger 300.

Marketing manager Salsabil Milad, speaking at the AVEX airshow in Sharm El Sheikh today, said the new addition to the fleet extended the offer the company was making to Libyan business.

"The aircraft are available to Libyan government and business men for charter, but we are also looking at business people elsewhere in the region who would find these aircraft ideal for their needs."

The company was founded in 2006 and is part of the same management group that owns Libyan Airlines and Afriqiyah.

:United Aviation is keen to provide first-class services to its customers. Our key to success lies in giving special attention to every detail, making sure our customers get the premium services on-board our flights around the clock," Milad said.
