AfBAA and JSSI To Promote Importance of Aircraft Mx

The African Business Aviation Association (AfBAA) has signed a memorandum of understanding with Jet Support Services (JSSI) to raise awareness about the importance of adopting best practices in aircraft maintenance. The five-year agreement will see the parties cooperating to promote awareness of program options that enable best practices across the aviation maintenance sector.

Under the terms of the agreement AfBAA members will receive financial, educational and business benefits when enrolling aircraft onto JSSI programs. In addition JSSI will provide a variety of tools and incentives to promote the adoption of certain industry best practices, including hourly-cost maintenance progams for executive aircraft, engines and APUs. The two expect that the adoption of hourly-cost maintenance programs will improve the way business aviation is perceived in Africa, highlighting its role as an efficient and safe mode of transportation.

The agreement fits with AfBAA’s plan to develop four pillars on which the African business-aviation sector can stand tall: safety, training, finance and advocacy.
