Jet Aviation Singapore starts first 8C inspection on a Global Express in Asia
Jet Aviation Singapore has begun the first Bombardier Global Express 8C Inspection in the Asia Pacific region.
The aircraft inspection will be completed in conjunction with an interior refurbishment. The inspection began earlier this month at the company’s MRO facility at Seletar Aerospace Park.
An 8C inspection happens every 10 years and is the largest maintenance event for an aircraft. The aircraft is completely dismantled and a thorough check of airframe and all structures, including a major overhaul of the landing gear, examination of all operating systems and a detailed review of the aircraft’s flight documents.
John Riggir, vice president and general manager of Jet Aviation Singapore says: “This is a significant milestone project for us and represents a vote of confidence from a very experienced regional operator. We look forward to demonstrating our capability and commitment to delivering a timely and highly valued outcome for our customer.”
