Textron Aviation recently held the grand opening of its expanded global parts distribution center in Wichita, Kansas that adds 180,000 square feet of floor space and new package sorting facilities, AIN reported. The expanded facility, called P43, now has 245,000 square feet and stocks about 15,000 active part numbers for new and existing models of Cessna, Beechcraft and Hawker aircraft. The company said this consolidates potentially five different buildings that served as warehouse space, which lets them reconfigure the other buildings for other needs.
