Hartzell Engine Tech will be promoting its firewall forward aircraft equipment at the Avalon 2023 Australian International Airshow, Feb. 28 through March 5, in Geelong, Victoria. The Montgomery-based engine component manufacturer is a co-exhibitor at the Made in Alabama booth at Avalon Airport, sponsored by the state’s Department of Commerce.

The exhibit will feature Hartzell’s Sky-Tec HT (High Torque) starters with self-resetting Kickback Protection System. The starters were recently awarded Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA) for Robinson R22 and R44 light utility helicopters, popular in Australia.

“Hartzell Engine Tech is very pleased to be a part of Alabama’s exhibit at Avalon 2023, highlighting the great aviation products manufactured in our state,” said Keith Bagley, company president. “While in Australia we will also have an opportunity to meet with our customers and distributors,” he added.

The Avalon 2023 Australian International Airshow and Aerospace & Defence Exposition is a global business, defence and public event, attracting senior civil aviation, aerospace, space and defence industry, military and government decision-makers from around the world. It is the largest airshow in Australia.
