The origins of Aircraft Radio and latterly, GPS &
Radio Wholesalers Australia date back to 1999 when Jeff Holland
established the avionics maintenance business.
Today, Aircraft Radio is an amalgamation of the businesses formerly
known as Aviation Products & Services and Aircraft Radio Sales
& Services. Jeff’s association with these businesses goes
back to 1987 when the original business was part of the AWA (Amalgamated
Wireless Australia) network.
Over a period of time, the company has changed its name and acquired
a number of other businesses along the way.
Since establishing the business, Jeff, together with his workshop
manager Kevin Windle, has developed the team and substantially raised
the level of expertise.
This has resulted in upgraded licence coverage so that Aircraft
Radio has become a fully approved aircraft Electrical, Instrument
and Radio Workshop.
Jeff and the team also realised their expertise extended to both
communication and navigation options in other areas beyond aviation.
Hence, GPS & Radio Wholesalers Australia was established to
service the communication and navigation needs in areas of land
and marine usage as well.
Today, Aircraft Radio has six engineers with more than 100 years
of experience in aviation technology and a dedicated team with a
background in marine and land based GPS and communication systems.
Jeff has had the privilege of working with two original 1990 team
members, engineer, John van Burck and office administrator, Lynn
Banner who are both still with the company today.
