Anton Rutkowski
Anton has been involved in General Aviation most of his life. In fact, he actually got his PPL before getting his driving licence.
As a result, he has more than 20 years experience in General Aviation.
He began his career in 1999, then relocated to New Zealand where he secured the position of Engineering manager at Flightline Aviation. He went on to work for them for more than 10 years.
Throughout his time at Flightline Aviation, they were bought by Oceania Aviation and then merged with Salus Aviation. The focus was on general Aviation in Australasia and gave Anton great opportunities to hone his aircraft maintenance skills.
Recently, Anton decided to move away from the corporate scene and focus on his passion for smaller aircrafts within Ardmore Airport. This allows him to continue to provide a personalised service for private Aircraft owners, the Auckland Aeroclub and other small aircraft fleets. Thus Ardmore Aircraft Services was born.
Anton's Philosophy
Anton prides himself on providing quality aircraft maintenance and support.
His years of experience allow him to work efficiently and he sets himself the highest standards.
So if you are looking for expertise and quality, do not hesitate to get in touch with Ardmore Aircraft Services today.
