- Combined stand/chalet adds to speed and ease of doing business with
Goodrich
CHARLOTTE, N.C., July 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Farnborough
International 2006 -- Goodrich Corporation (NYSE: GR) will debut a first at
the Farnborough International Air Show. For the first time in its long
history of participating in the show, Goodrich will be on site with an
innovative combined stand and chalet in the form of a two-story pavilion.
Located "Outside OE5," the pavilion replaces Goodrich's separate chalet and
stand. With its location literally at the center of the show site, the
pavilion will add to the speed and ease of doing business with Goodrich for
show attendees as well as Goodrich's guests and staff.
On the ground floor of the new structure all show-goers are welcome to
tour Goodrich's innovative products and services in an interactive
environment. Goodrich will feature its latest commercial systems and
technologies such as, landing gear, wheels and brakes, and sensors, for new
and existing platforms. In addition, its contribution to defense and
homeland security will be on display, with innovations such as: sensor
technologies for laser detection; surveillance and reconnaissance systems
for fighters and UAVs; and laser systems for perimeter awareness and
obstacle avoidance. Goodrich will also be focusing on its services in the
aftermarket with many experts on hand to provide more information.
The upper floor of the new pavilion accommodates private dining space
as well as an air show viewing platform.
According to Lisa Bottle, Vice President, Corporation Communications,
Goodrich Corporation, "We are excited about our new pavilion concept. It's
a literal interpretation of our 'one face to the customer' approach to
doing business. And in the high energy, time crunch atmosphere of a major
international air show, the two most valuable resources for exhibitors and
attendees alike are time and energy. With this new concept we're able to
conserve both all while creating a truly memorable experience for our
guests as well as the Goodrich team who has made this new concept a
reality."
Amanda Steiner, Exhibitions and Events Director, Farnborough
International, Ltd. stated, "Goodrich has always had a strong presence at
Farnborough International Airshow and we are delighted that they have
decided, this year, to expand their presence further by building a pavilion
which will incorporate their stand and hospitality facilities. This
impressive pavilion, located in a prime site, will attract the attention of
the visitors and be an excellent marketing tool for Goodrich. As
Farnborough is such a flexible site we are sure that once companies see
Goodrich's new 'look' others will follow suit."
