Quest Aircraft delivered 32 Kodiak 100 turboprop singles last year, two more than in 2014. “We have experienced solid growth both geographically and in a range of market segments,” said Quest president Sam Hill. “North America and Asia were strong markets for us last year, and we continue to increase our production as demand for a versatile aircraft like the Kodiak grows.”
To help meet this demand, Quest began a 75,000-sq-ft expansion at its Sandpoint, Idaho headquarters in the fall that will allow the company to nearly double its output of Kodiaks. In addition, the airframer is expanding its worldwide dealer network and leveraging corporate relationships to open more global markets.
Quest also recently enhanced its management team as it positions itself for growth. Nicholas Newby was named senior vice president of sales, marketing and customer service, a newly created position. Susan Jordan has been promoted to CFO and and senior vice president of administration, and Jason Eddy was elevated to senior vice president of operations, where he will oversee engineering and manufacturing, as well as other company operations.
The Kodiak 100 has received 21 certifications covering 31 countries, with additional approvals pending.
