Spain’s Valencia Airport will be the site of Cessna’s new European Citation service center. According to Cessna, the decision was made after two years of study, research and negotiations with Aeropuertos Españoles y Navegación Aérea (AENA), Spain’s aviation administrative office. Cessna and AENA signed a land grant contract for a location at the Valencia Airport located within the cities of Manises and Quart de Poblet, just west of the city of Valencia.  “With more than 1,000 Citations operating in Europe and more on the way, the new facility in Spain will be an excellent complementary location for our Paris  service center, offering our customers yet another option for service in an area we did not serve before,” said Mark Paolucci, Cessna senior v-p for customer service.
