Los Angeles-area service provider Sun Air Jets has completed Gulfstream’s FBO ground handling and servicing training program. Developed by the Savannah airframer in conjunction with FlightSafety International, the specialty training was designed “to improve dispatch reliability and increase safety for Gulfstream aircraft and the people who support them.”
The program goes in-depth on Gulfstream’s full product lineup, with a study module dedicated to each specific model. Topics include aircraft dimensions, empty weights, fuel capacities, and flight ranges, along with model-specific controls for fuel, water, and lavatory service. In addition, it covers towing procedures for each model.
With several Gulfstreams in its fleet—ranging from the super-midsize G200 to the large-cabin G500—the Camarillo Airport-based company believes participating in continuing education programs such as this ensures it can offer the best service to its clients.
“Sun Air Jets is proud to have achieved 100 percent completion of Gulfstream’s FBO ground handling and servicing training for all line service technicians,” said James Evans, the company’s director of safety and FBO operations. “Safety awareness in all facets of servicing our customer’s aircraft has always been our top priority, and Gulfstream’s training has been a great resource to help further our focus on aircraft-specific processes.”
