ExecuJet MRO Services Australia’s facility in Perth has become an authorized service center for Embraer’s business jets. Under an agreement announced on Tuesday, the company will provide support for the Brazilian airframer’s customers in Australia and other parts of the Asia-Pacific region.
Initially, support will be available for operators of Embraer’s Legacy 600 and 650 aircraft. ExecuJet said it has invested in new tools and training for the service offering.
“With proximity to Southeast Asia, it made sense to make Perth one of our centers of excellence for Embraer aircraft,” said Grant Ingall, ExecuJet MRO Services’ vice president for Australasia.
ExecuJet MRO Services, which is wholly owned by Dassault Aviation, has operated Embraer-authorized service centers at its Melbourne and Sydney locations since 2010. This means it can manage Executive Care support and warranty claims for spare parts and labor for the manufacturer.
The company also provides support for a variety of business aircraft made by Dassault, Bombardier, Gulfstream, and Textron Aviation. In addition to maintenance approval from the Australian Civil Aviation Authority, it has clearance to do heavy maintenance checks on Embraer aircraft from the FAA and the air safety agencies in Bermuda, Cayman Islands, San Marino, Vietnam, and Indonesia.
