Aircraft Hardware West, Inc. is proud to announce that Weber Aircraft has approved its quality system in anticipation of a contract awarded for Spring 2009.  Based in Gainesville, Texas, Weber Aircraft is a worldwide leader in the manufacture of aircraft and commercial seats.  AHW will be supplying hardware over a fixed term at contract pricing.  The core products supplied will include wrenchable nuts and platenuts, blind rivets, machine screws and nuts, keyed and panel inserts, clamps, washers and other hardware items stocked at AHW's facility in Long Beach, California.

With other major customers already in the Southwest, the acquisition of this considerable Weber Aircraft seat business positions AHW to expand its sales and warehouse facilities into the Dallas, Texas area.  A planned satellite operation for 2010 will further broaden AHW services to perform VMI programs and decrease shipping times for its Southwestern United States customers.  "The approval of AHW quality system by Weber Aircraft is an indication that our focus on quality makes good business sense.  With our planned expansion, AHW is excited to bring the same leading-edge quality systems from our Long Beach operation to the Dallas facility." says Frank Ioffrida, CEO and President.  AHW is an ISO 9001:2000 facility with quality approvals from major OEM's all over the world and the US Department of Defense.
