Harlow Aerostructure, Wichita, reprendrait Eclipse Aviation placé sous chapitre 7
Sur BizJournal :
Phil Friedman, CEO of Harlow Aerostructures in Wichita, has formed a new group with the intention on bidding for the assets of Eclipse Aviation Corp.
Friedman announced Thursday the creation of New Eclipse Acquisition LLC, which will be seeking to take over Eclipse’s assets following the New Mexico-based corporation’s Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings.
“It is sad that the company has ended up in bankruptcy, but I believe there is an excellent business opportunity going forward if managed correctly,” Friedman said in a written release. “Our plan is to take the first 24 months to stabilize the fleet of 259 aircraft and restore the brand.”
Friedman’s release says the acquisition company will look to keep as much of Eclipse’s existing structure in place as it could.
“We are actively exploring ways to hold the key talent together during the Chapter 7 process so we can re-employ them with the new company,” he says.
Earlier this week, the corporation announced it wouldn’t oppose the Chapter 7 filing by its
shareholders. Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a liquidation of assets to be distributed to debt holders.
