Is it because of tariffs? Another reason? Or simply a good idea? Does it matter why you’re reading about AJ Sport? U.S. government policies swing and sway the world in remarkable ways. That’s a whole story in itself, but the way aircraft suppliers respond to the situation they are facing can be instructive. To be clear, AeroJones Aviation is not reacting to tariff changes. This company, headquartered in U.S.-friendly Taiwan, has been working toward entering the American market for years. For more than a decade, AeroJones has been the officially-licensed producer of Flight Design’s CTLS and CTLSi for Asia-Pacific. They don’t simply import and sell units built in Europe. They do 100% of the fabrication, assembly, and production test flights in the Asian theater. They’ve delivered more than 50 aircraft and have won multiple CAAC airworthiness approvals. A video to follow soon features SilverLight Aviation‘s Abid Farooqui describing several notable changes the company achieved.
