Although originally a Boeing dominated company, Spirit Aerosystems has diversified within the aircraft sector to being a large suppler for Airbus (including the new A380), Cessna, Gulfstream and Beechcraft amongst others. Importantly, SPR maintains a huge inventory of certified parts for almost all Boeing commercial and military aircraft and has stockpiles of parts for other aircraft. Their aftermarket installation and aircraft maintenance programs are widely respected to be amongst the very best in the world.
Anticipated cyclical slower growth of aircraft sales are ptredicted to beginin 2010. SPR's repair, spare parts inventory for active aircraft, and worldwide service capabilities and diversification amongst numerous types of aircraft should deliver handsome profits regardless of new aircraft production.
