The UAE, and the Middle East region as a whole, is an area of rapid expansion for Diamond Aircraft, with a series of new aircraft sales in recent months.
At Air Expo Abu Dhabi, we were delighted to celebrate the delivery of the first DA50 RG aircraft to a UAE customer, Abdulla Al-Zaabi – who also happens to be the founder-owner of Project Aviation, a new Abu Dhabi-based flight school. Project Aviation has also just signed a contract for the purchase of two DA40 and one DA42 aircraft.
We also celebrated the delivery of the first DA62 into Kuwait – more to come on that soon.
Apart from the new aircraft sales, the event was a fantastic chance to catch up with established partners, as well as to raise the profile of the Diamond brand and discuss our product range with private and professional pilots meeting us for the first time.
A definite highlight of the trip was a flight in the new DA50, kindly arranged by Al-Zaabi, taking off from an airfield about an hour’s drive into the desert and flying by the beautiful Abu Dhabi coastline.
We look forward to returning to the UAE in 2025!
