Marshall Aviation Services is continuing to expand its support capabilities, with its Broughton facility in North Wales adding approvals for the Citation 560, Citation XL and Citation XLS to its EASA Part 145 certificate. The facility completed its first work on a Citation XLS on May 20. 
  
The Citation support will complement Broughton facility’s long-standing services for Hawker and Beechcraft, which are now sibling aircraft under the Textron Aviation umbrella. Marshall (Booth P114) has further rounded out it Beechcraft King Air portfolio with the recent EASA approval for its C90 maintenance. Marshall previously had EASA approvals for the King Air 200 and 300 series.
  
Separately, Marshall has broadened the range of aircraft its supports as a Continuing Airworthiness Management Organization (CAMO) with the additions of the Bombardier Challenger 604 and 605. As a CAMO, Marshall is responsible for ensuring the airworthiness of aircraft maintained for third-party customers. This includes performing regular checks to ensure compliance with airworthiness directives, and taking responsibility for quality management and documentation.
  
On the fixed-base operation side, Marshall’s facility in Birmingham is hosting a number of additional VIP airliner models. Resident charter operator Cello Aviation added a second Boeing 737-300 to its fleet, joining its 737 and Avro RJ already based in Birmingham, along with a 757-200 and 737-400 that are regularly flown by GainJet of Greece. To accommodate the larger jets, Marshall said the taxiway is being widened for live aircraft movements close to the FBO doors. 
  
Marshall, which is in its first year of operations at the Birmingham FBO, also has Germany’s Air Alliance Express as a new tenant company.
