Newport Beach, California – April 8, 2008 – SOAR, an aircraft evaluation, recovery, repair and modification provider and a division of Source One Aviation, has recently added satellite representatives in Hong Kong and the United Kingdom and expanded into a larger U.S. facility.

Mr. Roger Thompson, based in England, will be the local point of contact for SOAR’s growing European business and Mr. Anthony Chan will promote SOAR’s recovery opportunities in Asia from his office in Hong Kong. Both gentlemen bring decades of exceptional knowledge of the aviation repair, recovery and modification environments.
