Aircraft enhancement business wins lawsuit

By Janice Wood · December 27, 2010 ·

A Waller County, Texas, district court has determined that D’Shannon Products, Ltd. is the sole and rightful owner of a wide variety of upgrades for Beechcraft piston engine aircraft. The court also awarded D’Shannon and its owners $1,296,908 from prior holders of various Beechcraft upgrade rights for unpaid commissions, expenses and attorneys’ fees.

“This judgment vindicates our efforts to provide innovative, quality upgrades for owners of Beech Bonanza and Baron aircraft,” said D’Shannon president Scott Erickson. “Now that we have successfully concluded this litigation, we can focus on our growth of our core business.”

The modifications made available by D’Shannon include additional fuel tanks, replacement windows, engine upgrades and performance upgrades, and gross weight increases. For more information: www.d-shannon-aviation.com

D’Shannon was represented in the lawsuit by Coats & Evans, a Texas law firm that specializes in aviation-related transactions. For more information: 281-367-7732 or TexasAviationLaw.com
