ExecuJet MRO Services Malaysia has completed back-to-back maintenance checks on Dassault Falcon 2000EX, 900LX, 7X, and 8X jets since the start of the year, cementing its status as the region’s major business jet MRO provider. Based at Malaysia’s Subang Airport, the company continues to see increasing demand for its maintenance services from regional operators.
ExecuJet has expanded its range of Falcon service activities, from pre-purchase inspections to scheduled inspections. In a recent case, the service center repainted the livery and refurbished the cabin of a Falcon 8X and performed scheduled heavy maintenance work to exploit ground time.
“Our status as the region’s major Dassault MRO facility is driving new demand,” said Ivan Lim, ExecuJet MRO Services regional v-p for Asia. “The customers appreciate that our engineers and technicians are trained by Dassault, coupled with our regional experience for which we have numerous testimonies from our clients over the years…We now support all in-production Falcon models and most legacy models. With the increasing number of Falcon aircraft in Asia, we are witnessing a surge in demand for line and base maintenance work as well as pre-purchase inspection work.”
Falcon work now accounts for more than half of the MRO provider’s Malaysia business. It continues to accelerate efforts to recruit mechanics, including hiring maintenance technicians and engineers certified to work on Falcon aircraft.
A wholly owned subsidiary of Dassault Aviation, ExecuJet operates MRO facilities in Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe, and the Middle East. Specializing in airframe, avionics, and engine maintenance, the company has gained certification to work on a wide range of aircraft, including ones from Dassault, Bombardier, Embraer, Gulfstream, and various other OEMs.
