Textron Aviation Inc. is the general aviation business unit of the conglomerate Textron that was formed in March 2014 following the acquisition of Beech Holdings which included the Beechcraft and Hawker Aircraft businesses. The new business unit includes the Textron-owned Cessna. Textron Aviation sells Beechcraft and Cessna-branded aircraft. While no longer selling new Hawker airplanes, Textron Aviation still supports the existing Hawker aircraft fleet through its service centers.[1][2]
The CEO of Cessna, Scott Ernest, was named as the first CEO of Textron.[1][2] In October 2018, Ronald Draper succeeded Ernest to become the second CEO of Textron Aviation.[3]
