Selangor State Government Senior Executive Councillor, Datuk Teng Chang Khim today officially opened the Selangor Aviation Show 2021 (SAS2021). Held on 25 to 27 November 2021, the inaugural SAS2021 is believed to be among the first in-person Air Shows to be held in the region since the pandemic struck in 2020.
Hosted by the Selangor State Government, organised by Invest Selangor Berhad, supported by MATRADE and its strategic partner the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) and the National Aerospace Industry Coordinating Office (NAICO), SAS2021 is a part of Invest Selangor’s initiative to give the aerospace industry a push towards recovering from the Covid-19 pandemic’s devastating effects to the industry.
Themed ‘Selangor, the Asean Business and General Aviation Hub’, SAS2021 is focusing on the Business and General Aviation industry especially in Selangor as worldwide data has shown this sector of the aerospace industry to be more resilient to the pandemic impact and its recovery is quicker and more sustainable than most other aerospace industry sectors.
The SAS2021, which will have strong local representation, has also attracted participation from international players from Brazil, France, Switzerland, Turkey and the USA.
Major OEMs like Airbus, Dassault Aviation, Embraer SA and Turkish Aerospace Industries are participating, as well as local industry leaders like Systematic Aviation Services, Galaxy Aerospace, AERODYNE and Pen Aviation.
There are several highlights throughout the SAS2021 including product, services and technology exhibitions, static aircraft displays, drone displays, networking sessions, numerous talks on the industry’s hot topics and even an Edu-Open Day on 27 November for the NextGen visitors.
Interested trade visitors may still register to attend the SAS2021, with some limitations to time slot availability. The public and students are encouraged to visit on the third day of the Show. Registration can be done via https://selangoraviationshow.com
