Six of ExecuJet Aviation Group’s MROs have been designated Hawker Beechcraft (HBC) authorized service centers. They include ExecuJet Aviation facilities in Lanseria and Cape Town, South Africa; Dubai, UAE; Melbourne and Sydney, Australia; and Lagos, Nigeria. A spokesman for ExecuJet, which has a total of eight maintenance facilities worldwide, said the other locations will be considered based on demand. The company will provide line and base maintenance on Hawker Beechcraft’s current line of Hawker series products, including the Hawker 4000, Hawker 900XP, Hawker 750 and Hawker 400XP. ExecuJet has recently added personnel to its engineering staff to support the contract with HBC. ExecuJet Dubai recently obtained extension to its EASA and GCAA line and base approvals in support of the Hawker 400XP, 125 Series and 4000. The Dubai maintenance facility tripled capacity with the addition of a new hangar and has more than 135 personnel on its maintenance staff. In addition to supporting the Hawker Beechcraft fleet, ExecuJet works on Gulfstream; Bombardier’s Learjet, Challenger and Global Express; the Embraer Legacy; and the Dassault Falcon series. The company currently holds a total of 28 maintenance authority approvals.
