ExecuJet MRO sees 15% increase in Falcon maintenance post-Covid

ExecuJet MRO Services Australasia is reporting maintenance of Dassault Falcon aircraft has increased from almost nothing to 15% of its total business since 2019, reflecting Dassault’s acquisition of the company. 

ExecuJet MRO is also predicting the Falcon aircraft family will account for at least 20% of its business next year.

The Falcon fleet has now grown to more than 120 aircraft in the Asia Pacific region.

For the first time, the company has three Dassault Falcons in Sydney undergoing heavy maintenance checks simultaneously.

Grant Ingall, regional vice president of ExecuJet MRO Services Australasia, said: “This is the first time we’ve had three Falcons in the hangar at once undergoing airframe heavy maintenance checks. It shows that ExecuJet is the preferred MRO service provider for Falcon operators, and it highlights the growing Falcon footprint across Australasia and the Pacific.”

The aircraft – a Falcon 2000EX EASy, a Falcon 900EX, and a Falcon 900EX EASy – are undergoing scheduled airframe heavy maintenance checks at ExecuJet’s MRO centre at Sydney Airport. 

The New Zealand-registered Falcon 2000EX EASy is undergoing a 24-yearly (3C) heavy maintenance check and will receive a full airframe repainting upon completion. 

The Australian-registered Falcon 900EX is in for an ‘out of phase’ scheduled check, while a foreign-registered Falcon 900EX EASy is undergoing a 36-month scheduled maintenance check. 

Back in May 2025, the Japan Civil Aviation Bureau (JCAB) certified ExecuJet MRO Services Malaysia to perform line and heavy maintenance on Japan-registered Falcon 2000EX aircraft.

Ivan Lim, regional vice president of Asia for ExecuJet MRO Services, said: “We see potential in Japan, as it is a sizeable business jet market, and because operators there want to send their aircraft to an OEM-owned MRO organisation that is certified nationally and internationally.”
