"Beat Höhener has demonstrated exceptional commitment in his role as turnaround manager by succeeding to stabilise and reposition Business Aviation in a challenging environment. The job is now to strengthen its position in the international marketplace and further leverage its growth potential. To achieve that, we have secured the services of Michael Sattler of Jet Aviation, a worthy successor," comments Philipp Berner, CEO of RUAG Aviation.

Höhener will move into another operational role within RUAG in the next few months, temporarily acting as vice president of strategy and development for RUAG Holding AG in the meantime.

Sattler joins RUAG Aviation after 15 years-plus at Jet Aviation.
