About Us

Smart Aviation Asia-Pacific is a news website that features in-depth interviews with people in the regional aviation industry and the defense industry. We like to take a close look at the versatility of regional aircraft and provide insights pertinent to the emerging markets across Asia-Pacific.

We’re on a mission to bring interesting and meaningful articles to our readers, and perhaps, make you a little smarter about aviation.
