Jet Aviation St Louis has began servicing its first Embraer Lineage 1000 executive jet.

The St Louis facility is the first and currently only Lineage authorised service center in the United States.

Adding the Embraer Lineage to the St Louis facility’s growing list of capabilities comes just three months after beginning to service aircraft in a narrow-body hangar constructed specifically for such larger airframes.

“Certification as an authorized service center for the Lineage is a welcome complement to the facility’s longtime ASC status for the smaller Embraer Legacy,” said Chuck Krugh, senior vice president and general manager at Jet Aviation St. Louis.

Krugh continued “This certification validates the impressive experience and expertise of our crews and our capability to handle the larger airframes in the corporate/business jet category. This market segment demands fine, detailed craftsmanship and expert mechanical skill. We’re proud of our longtime association with Embraer and especially pleased that Embraer has recognised Jet Aviation St. Louis for the expanded capabilities required for this level of service.”

Jet Aviation St. Louis will perform a 36-month inspection and address applicable service bulletins on the Lineage at its facility at St. Louis Downtown Airport in Cahokia, Ill.

“Stepping up to the Lineage expands our airframe capabilities dramatically and is further proof that we provide superior service in the MRO segment, as well as in completions. We continue to deliver a wide array of top-quality services and products,” Krugh concluded.
