TAG Aviation makes two new additions to Asian fleet

Centrik allows TAG Aviation Asia to seamlessly integrate its most complex operations through a single point, with all information accessible, and actionable, from wherever its employees are working (image taken prior to COVID-19 pandemic).

TAG Aviation has added a Gulfstream G600 and a Bombardier Global 7500 to its Asian fleet in the fourth quarter.

The new Gulfstream G600 has just entered service and is one of the first delivered to Asia. It joins a fleet of more than 20 Gulfstream aircraft under TAG Aviation management in Asia, which includes a G280, G450, G550, and G650/G650ER aircraft.

The new Bombardier Global 7500 is the second in TAG Aviation’s Asia fleet and joins more than 20 other Bombardier aircraft including Challenger 604, 605 and 850 aircraft as well as Global 5000, XRS, 6000 and 7500s.

TAG Aviation’s Hong Kong maintenance organisation was recently appointed as a Bombardier Authorized Service Facility earlier this year. The appointment includes services for the Bombardier Global 5000 GVFD, Global 6000 GVFD, Global 7500, and the Challenger 605.

Simon Bambridge, commercial director, Asia, said: “We are honoured to be entrusted to manage these exceptional aircraft on behalf of their new owners. These aircraft are two of the most sophisticated and technologically advanced business jets available today offering segment-leading capability and passenger comfort.

He added: “It is a testament to the extraordinary team we have at TAG Aviation that we were able to take delivery of these aircraft and enter them into service smoothly and efficiently during the unprecedented challenges brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic.”
