Textron Aviation Prague Mx Center Celebrates 15th Year

Fifteen years ago, Cessna Aircraft (which became part of Textron Aviation in 2014) opened a service center in Prague. As one of 21 Textron Aviation factory-owned service centers, the Prague facility is now celebrating the past decade and a half of serving European owners and operators of Textron Aviation airplanes.

There are about 1,700 turbine-powered Cessna and Beechcraft airplanes based in Europe, justifying the need for Textron Aviation’s service center at Prague International Airport (LKPR), as well as at Zurich, Paris, Valencia (Spain), and Düsseldorf (Germany). “With company-owned service centers in [these cities], the network provides factory-direct support close to where customers operate,” according to Textron Aviation.

Covering 6,100 sq ft, the Prague service center offers “scheduled maintenance, interior upgrades, and select modifications, helping customers maintain performance and reliability throughout the life cycle of their aircraft.”

“Fifteen years in Prague represents an important milestone for our team and reflects the trust European operators place in us,” said Prague general manager Christof Kandel. “As fleet and customers evolve, our focus remains on delivering consistent, factory-direct support that helps operators keep aircraft flying and missions on schedule.”
