SEASON'S GREETINGS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It's been a while since we updated our Blog. Many interesting things have happened to further our business and in particular our endeavour to promote Seaplanes!

Exciting new things related to manufacturing Seaplanes is to be announced soon. We will be working very closely with the US manufacturer to promote the line throughout Asia- pacific region.

While we continue to be based in Singapore, there are expansion plans happening. We will be branching out to India at some time next year but most importantly we will be located in the United States from early January 2015. We are going global.

So, watch this space for updates and wish us well!

We, at Jeteezy family,  would like to convey our best wishes for the Season and a Very Happy, prosperous, healthy New Year to all our customers, friends, supporters, well wishers et al.

Thanks for your kind support in 2014, may everyone have a fantastic 2015!

Cheers!

EAA Airventure Oshkosh 2014

We attended the EAA Airventure in Oshkosh, Wisconsin which is the largest airshow in the World with more than 10,000 Aircraft. Particularly focussed on experimental and General Aviation Aircraft, this is the place to be for any aviation enthusiast.

In our case we had meetings with various vendors and service providers particularly in and also attended some talks, discussions and forums during our stay there. For details of Oshkosh airshow, their website and for a collection of photographs from the show, please visit our facebook page here.

We will update this page with more photos and videos from the event and news of our USA activities.

End.

TEST FLIGHT TO BINTAN DONE

We are pleased to announce that our final project for Hampshire General Aviation has been completed with respect to their Lake 250 Amphibious Seaplane. We were responsible for importing the same to Singapore in dismantled condition , reassembled the same and delivered it to Hampshire Capital, Hampshire Group, Penang. This blog is about the flight to Bintan, performed for the same group under contract. We are pleased to have created History by being the first ever Seaplane to have landed and first ever seaplane pilot in the regular seaplane category to have landed in Bintan, Indonesia.

 Despite local challenges and the need to go it alone in Singapore for such a niche project, we have managed to do well. Lack of some support from agencies here hampers efforts for further growth but we hope to overcome those soon.

Seaplane on ramp at Bintan

Hampshire requested for our pilot services for conducting these flights to Bintan and satisfy the approval granted for carrying out initial landings in Bintan.

We took off from Seletar with out test pilot Capt. Anup Murthy and Technical officer Chris Chua on 15th March, landed at Batam International Airport for CIQ and proceeded a short distance away to Bintan for sea landing.

We flew 500 feet off the water from Batam under Batam ATC and radio them before approaching landing area. Pilot chose the Bintan Ferry Terminal area, that was the approved designated landing area by the Master of Ports, Bintan, and landed safely there in choppy waters generated by strong weather systems. It was manageable conditions for safe operations.

The amphibian was taxied to the Nirwana Beach Club boat ramp where the pilot put the landing gear down in the water and came ashore and parked on the ramp at the Beach Club.

Local Authorities, Coast guard, Ports, Chief of security, GM and staff of Nirwanan Gardens etc were all at hand at the spot to facilitate and observe.

The return trip to Singapore was also from the same area, Bintan ferry terminal area, know as BBT, for a rough water takeoff (normally much smoother waters) and safely made to to Batam for exit CIQ, proceeding back to Singapore as normal Aircraft and landing at Seletar Airport.

SINGAPORE AIR SHOW 2014

We were at the Singapore Air Show this year, although we didn't have enough time to prepare and have a booth at site. We did meet with some old friends in aviation and had a good show in terms of meetings and potential business for the Company.

In this blog, we will just post some photos of the show, not the aerial displays as they were mostly military in nature. In this blog, the pictures will be mostly civilian Aircraft and although the presence of General Aviation was very limited, there were a few still holding up the GA flag.

Enjoy the pictures.
