Grob Aerospace serait repris par H3,
Bombardier est déjà reparti ( Lear 85 et materiaux "comosites" ) ? Une chance pour la relance du Grob Spn ? Quid des déboires d'Eclipse, quels nouvelles des autres programmes de VLJ !
Sur Aviation Week, en anglais :
After months of negotiations, the insolvency administrator for Grob Aerospace has named H3
Aerospace as the buyer of the company.
Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany-based H-3 Aerospace, through Fortius Mittelstandskapital, is buying the
training aircraft and support businesses. Around 100 employees are expected to resume work at Grob's Tussenhausen-Mattsies facility already in February.
The insolvency administrator says the 100 employees is just a starting point, with growth
expected.
The SPn program also is expected to survive. The rights to the project have been given to one of the main creditors for Grob, which hasn't been further identified, yet.
Talks to preserve the company were complicated by the current global economic crisis, the insolvency administrator, Michael Jaffe concedes.
Grob declared insolvency in August after a large creditor refused to extend further capital to continue development of the SPn utility jet after repeated delays. Production was closed
when bridge money ran out in November.
