The Washington, D.C.-based Aircraft Fleet Recycling Association (AFRA) has announced that GA Telesis, with several global operating locations and U.S. headquarters in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is the newest member of AFRA. GA Telesis specializes in providing support services to the aerospace industry. With the addition of GA Telesis, AFRA now comprises 68 member companies.
Martin Fraissignes, executive director of AFRA, states, “The fact that such a prestigious and influential company as GA Telesis has chosen to join AFRA is further testament to AFRA’s leading role in developing and setting industry standards for the sustainable disassembly of aircraft.”
“We look forward to developing an active working partnership with GA Telesis who are one of our industry leaders,” continues Fraissignes. “Being able to count on one more industry leader is important as we move forward in working closely with regulatory and legislative authorities in Europe and the United States to promote the sustainable development of the end-of-life sector of the air transport industry.”
