2009, NEW YEAR message. 

AMT Netherlands wishes all of our customers a healthy and prosperous new Year. 

The year 2008 has been a very busy and successful year for us, with many new customers for our full automatic Electric starting turbines especially the Olympus HP and  new Titan engines were very good for our business .
 

Titan and Olympus HP.
Our Titan and Olympus HP E-start are becoming extremely popular world-wide especially with our "professional" customers. Customers are reporting that it actually does produce the full thrust that we specify, with superb fuel consumption, unlike some other turbine manufacturers that are supposedly in this thrust range !

Pegasus HP and Mercury HP.
The Pegasus HP and Mercury HP continues to be a good selling product, with amazing reliability and fuel efficiency. We have serviced engines, that have more than 30 running hours, they needed minimal maintenance before returning to their owners.

Delivery Times.
Delivery times for new engines are, normally within 3-4 weeks of order, at some moments we have engines in stock for immediate delivery, if needed call or email for availability.

Other products.
We are working already 2,5 years together with the EASA on the certification of our Olympus HP for the use as a "bringing home device" for a full size glider. This system did get the name "PSR Jet system" and has its own website: http://www.psr-jet-system.com.  We expect to have finalised the European certification process of the Olympus HP during April 2009. 
 

We look forward to meet many more of our customers at the various shows and events that we attend throughout the world in 2009, and wish you all a very successful and prosperous year.

February 2005, price reduction.

Dear visitor,

On February 1st 2005 we, at AMT Netherlands, changed several of our prices, both dealer and retail, for complete sets of electric start turbines. This price change has been brought about by the continued increase in the value of the Euro against all major currencies,  a rise which many financial observers consider has made the Euro overvalued. We realize, also,  that in making these price reductions customers inside the Euro market will also benefit.

When the Euro becomes less expensive for our customers outside the European market we will, in time, adjust our pricing again.

AMT Netherlands has always produced gas turbines of the very highest quality and which are at the top end of the market. We believe that these price reductions will make our engines even better value.
 

Best regards,

Bennie van de Goor
AMT Netherlands

Price Increase
 

Dear Customer,

As you may know, AMT Netherlands have not changed the prices of our Pegasus and Olympus turbines for almost 5 years, and the cost of our Mercury HP is still the same as the cost of the original Mercury in 1998.

However, due to increased cost of parts and materials, as well as new equipment and staff at our Netherlands factory, to ensure that our motors continue to be the best available in the world, it is now necessary to increase the prices of our products from 1st February, 2001.

Of course all motors and accessories ordered before 1st February 2001 will be charged at the old price. 

Please go to our price list page for details of the updated prices. We hope that you understand our reasons for this price increase, and look forward to meeting many of you at shows and events later this year.

Recently we started some new developments on our range of engines which will be in production later this year, which will put our products one more step in front of our competitors. Of course, like all our new products, these new developments will be fully compatible with, and retrofitable to all existing AMT Netherlands motors.

Rumours

Dear Visitor,

Recently there have been many rumours and stories in the 'jet scene' and on the internet, about what is happening with AMT - in particular the story that AMT Netherlands (the original 'parent' company) has been taken over and closed down by AMT USA.

We can now inform you that AMT USA, Han Jenniskens and Jenniskens beheer b.v. brought a court action against AMT Netherlands, Bennie van de Goor, and van de Goor Modelbouw, which alleged business & accounting irregularities, and also asked the court to make an order to prevent them manufacturing turbines in the future.

The court case was held on 19th May, 1999, and the judges verdict was announced on June 3rd. We have great pleasure in informing you that the verdict denied all the claims of AMT USA against the defendants. Furthermore Han Jenniskens and AMT USA are prohibited from saying, writing or doing anything negative against any of the defendants - otherwise a large fine will be imposed.

AMT Netherlands has no connections with AMT USA. As we have done since 1995, AMT Netherlands will continue to manufacture & develop the legendary AMT range of turbines & accessories in Holland, as well as giving the service & support for which we are so well known.

AMT Netherlands wish to thank all our customers, dealers & representatives, world-wide, for being so loyal during the past few difficult months.
Finally, we look forward to meeting many of our customers at the forthcoming 3rd Jet World Masters in Austria, where we will be providing full technical service & support, and wish all competitors good luck and safe landings.
