Armac is delighted to announce the appointment of Frank Walschot to our Board of Directors. A well respected and experienced executive in the aviation maintenance industry, Frank has served in a succession of senior level roles in leading multi-national companies, starting in Pratt & Whitney where he progressed from Finance and Accounting into Operations and General management in their Overhaul and Repair operation.
After a brief stint in the electronics industry he joined SR Technics as Head of Engine Services in 2008 and was appointed Chief Operating Officer in 2014. After a one year assignment in 2017 as Chief Investment Officer at HNA Technic, he returned to SR Technics as CEO in 2018.
