ExecuJet MRO Services Middle East has completed another heavy maintenance check on a Global 6000 including a cabin interior refresh and exterior paint repairs.
With this particular Global, an Indian registered aircraft, the company secured the 15-yearly inspection due to its significant experience of heavy base maintenance on Bombardier aircraft and its long track-record of maintaining Indian registered aircraft.
ExecuJet MRO Services’ new 165,160ft2 purpose-built MRO at Dubai’s Al Maktoum International Airport is in close proximity to India resulting in a short repositioning flight to this MRO which offers comprehensive maintenance capability, including inhouse non-destructive testing (NDT), sheet-metal and composite work as well as a paint department.
“Holding these capabilities inhouse is crucial to reducing base maintenance costs to the customer. ExecuJet also met the customer’s expectations by offering a NTE (No To Exceed) proposal with the added value of maximizing the downtime by scheduling the airframe heavy check with cabin refurbishment options and an engine change,” said Nick Weber, regional VP Middle East at ExecuJet MRO Services.
“In the past, some of the heavier base maintenance checks were carried out in Europe, because the cabin refurbishment work capability was there, but now that we have European cabin interior specialists based here in Dubai, we are capturing more of this type of refurbishment market,” said Weber.
“ExecuJet’s partner – F/List, an Austrian headquartered cabin interior specialist that has a highly trained and experienced technical team now with interior workshops in Dubai, performed the cabin refurbishment work in parallel to the scheduled maintenance.”
ExecuJet MRO Services Middle East is approved by India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation to do line and heavy maintenance on multiple OEM aircraft including Dassault, Bombardier, Embraer and Hawker aircraft.
