ExecuJet MRO Services Malaysia, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dassault Aviation, has further expanded its maintenance capabilities with the additional regulatory approvals from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and US FAA.
EASA has certified ExecuJet MRO Services Malaysia to perform line and base maintenance checks on the Falcon 7X aircraft at its MRO facility at Subang Airport.
EASA has also certified it to perform non-destructive testing (NDT) using ultrasonic, eddy current, magnetic particle and penetrant testing.
Meanwhile, the US FAA has certified the MRO organization for additional two NDT methods using ultrasonic inspection and penetrant testing.
“The base maintenance approval for Falcon 7X is significant as there are demands from European-registered Falcons based in Asia in addition to those that are passing through the region. Having EASA certification, which is an international certification recognized by many other civil aviation regulators, demonstrates we meet stringent requirements imposed by the regulator,” says Ivan Lim, regional VP Asia, ExecuJet MRO Services.
“The NDT capability we have added is important, as it further complements heavy base maintenance checks, helping us to identify structural defects efficiently and reduce disruptive unscheduled downtime,” he adds.
