Textron Aviation Adds New Aircraft Sales To Aerolineas Ejecutivas’ Role In Mexico In an effort to fortify its presence in Mexico, aircraft manufacturer Textron Aviation, a division of Textron, has expanded the responsibilities of its channel partner Aerolineas Ejecutivas to now include new aircraft sales and service for Textron’s full jet and turboprop aircraft portfolio. The move enables customers to access Textron’s complete new aircraft portfolio via Aerolineas Ejecutivas, an ASF (authorized service facility) for Textron’s Beechcraft and Hawker jet and turboprop aircraft. By year’s end, Textron states Aerolineas Ejecutivas will also be an ASF for Citation jet aircraft. Textron owns the Beechcraft, Hawker, and Cessna brands, as well as Bell Helicopter.
