JCB Aero Opens New Beaudet Completions House in U.S.

French aircraft interiors specialist JCB Aero (Booth C13031) recently opened a new U.S. facility close to Dassault Falcon’s completion center in Little Rock, Ark. Trading under the name Beaudet Aviation, the company provides cabin refurbishment and reconfiguration services.

The new facility features cabinetry, upholstery, fiberglass and paint shops, and can make complete cabin interiors. Further investments will be made to shorten manufacturing cycles, including the addition of a hangar and further production areas and tooling. Among the capabilities that will be added are varnishing processes.

Beaudet started operations with a workforce of 30 people, and this is set to increase to 100 by the end of 2016. All craftsmen are selected by JCB’s own interior specialists.
