After a successful Red Flag Exercise at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, the Royal Jordanian Air Force (RJAF) extended a visit request to a couple of S&K Aerospace employees that supported them in the United States. The RJAF was impressed by the level of support and professionalism shown by S&K Aerospace during their training at Red Flag.

John Sims, Vice President of Operations, and Matt Hellrung, Exercise Support Manager, traveled to Amman, Jordon, to tour their operations and to meet with senior RJAF officers to discuss potential support opportunities. S&K Aerospace has significant experience providing support for neighboring countries like Saudi Arabia.
