Dassault Aviation-owned ExecuJet MRO Services Middle East has been approved by India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to perform line and base maintenance on “classic” Falcon 2000s registered in India. The Dubai-based location already has DGCA approvals for the Falcon 7X, 8X, 900C/EX/EASy, and 2000EASy.
India has around 10 Falcon 2000s powered by CFE738 engines and equipped with Collins Pro Line 4 avionics. They comprise half of Dassault business jets registered in the country.
As India-registered aircraft carry business and tourism visitors in large numbers to Dubai, a short flight from India, “the approval enables ExecuJet to better support all Indian Falcon customers operating within the region,” said ExecuJet Middle East regional v-p Nick Weber.
Meanwhile, ExecuJet Middle East is readying to move from Dubai International to Al Maktoum International Airport, where the company is opening a new 15,000-sq-m (163,000-sq-ft) business aviation MRO facility in the third quarter. That facility will be able to simultaneously accommodate up to 24 business jets.
