Bombardier (Stand 1325) has added a new line maintenance station in Dubai to provide Challenger and Global customers with “fast, efficient aircraft on ground service capabilities,” as well as general line maintenance capabilities.

Located at Al Maktoum International Airport, the line station offers two mobile response team trucks and is staffed by a team of nine technicians. The company’s facility also offers 3,000 sq ft of office space, stores, a tool room, and a general workshop.

“The Middle East offers considerable potential for Bombardier’s aftermarket business, with significant future growth opportunities in the region,” the company said.

The Dubai station has earned several aircraft maintenance certifications, including EASA, GCAA, Cayman Islands, Aruba, Guernsey, San Marino, Isle of Man, BCAA, and others, with FAA and GACA approvals expected soon.

“The addition of the Dubai line maintenance station builds on Bombardier’s extensive infrastructure growth around the world and highlights its enhanced investment in aftermarket infrastructure, new technologies, resources, and capabilities to drive value for customers and their aircraft,” Bombardier said.
