Cessna stores across the United
States.
Besides selling aviation-related
merchandise, the new store, called
Hangar 10, uses a flight simulator to
entice customers to take flying les
sons at nearby Cessna Pilot Centers.
The store is the focal point for a
new selling strategy, including Han
gar 10 social clubs that offer activ
ities and travel discounts tq> members
and a Cessna-Hangar 10 credit card
that can be used to purchase parts,
fuel and service as well as merchan
dise at the stores.
Cessna’s aim is to introduce flying
on the public’s turf — the shopping
mall — rather than at the airport.
The first Hangar 10 store opened
Tuesday at the Valley View shop
ping center in affluent north Dallas.
A second store is scheduled to open
later this month in Minneapolis.
“It’s a bold leadership innovation
by Cessna,” said Richard Schwebel,
vice president of Cessna’s aircraft
marketing division.
Cessna reported a $2.7 million
profit for a nine-month period end
ing in June. But the profit mainly re-
flectea accumulated tax benefits.
Without the benefits, the company
would have posted a $17.5 million
loss.
While industry observers have
predicted an eventual recovery of
sales of larger business turboprops
and jets, they have been less opti
mistic about the future sales of
