OLATHE, Kan., May 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Butler National Corporation (OTCQB: BUKS), a leader in the growing global market for structural modification, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) announces the engagement of Mr. Robert E. Olson to direct an aggressive new sales and marketing effort targeting the commercial aircraft industry.

Olson was also a Captain in U.S. Air Force and a recognized expert in global flight support services.
Craig Stewart, President of Butler National's Aerospace Division said, "This is another step in our three-prong aerospace growth strategy that includes our rapidly growing small and medium aircraft MRO business, mergers and acquisitions, and new growth. Mr. Olson will focus on the commercial aircraft marketplace. Mr. Olson brings another strong presence in the air transport business."
Olson added, "I agree that Butler National is one of the fastest growing companies in the aerospace industry. They are well positioned to leverage the expected $3.2 trillion growth in the aerospace market.
