Tim Shannon, director and chief of office of airworthiness at Jet Aviation Basel, said: “We are delighted to expand our design capabilities to include modification services to South African registered aircraft.”
Johannes Turzer, vice president and general manager of maintenance at Jet Aviation Basel, adds: “The ability to approve modifications without further validation of the SACAA supports Jet Aviation Basel’s strong position as a one-stop-shop and allows us faster aircraft delivery to our valued South African customers.”
