1 September.... Announcement of Retirement - Founding owner and Director Doug Pauling retires from AAL. 



Doug's retirement from AAL is the culmination of a three year strategy, which now frees him to enjoy time with his family and pursue new challenges.

His outstanding contribution to Air Affairs (AAL) spans a period of 27 years, during which he has seen the company grow from modest beginnings as the Royal New Zealand Navy's air target supplier, to its current position in the international market with an Australian subsidiary, and contracting with the US Government.

Doug is well known across the New Zealand business community, and defence industry in particular.  He is a past Chairman of the Defence Industry Committee of New Zealand, and a comittee member of the New Zealand Defence Industry Association.  He is one of a select few to be appointed an Honorary Captain by the RNZN in recognition of his tireless efforts to meet their requirements and customer focus.

Like all of those in Doug's network, we will miss Doug's infectious enthusiasm and friendship, and wish him well in his future.
