ExecuJet continues to send maintenance technicians and engineers from Australia to Dassault in France and the US for advanced technical training on Dassault aircraft types.
ExecuJet MRO Services, a Dassault Aviation company, announced that the company has taken the decision to invest in additional equipment and further training on the Dassault aircraft types. ExecuJet with this investment aims to strengthen its position as a ‘centre of excellence’ for Dassault Aviation. ExecuJet maintenance currently continues to send technicians and engineers from Australia to Dassault Aviation in France and the US for advanced technical training on Dassault aircraft types. ExecuJet MRO Services Company has also invested in new tooling from Dassault.
“We have further consolidated our position as a factory-owned Dassault Aviation maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) organisation by investing in more tooling and training,” says Grant Ingall, Vice President ExecuJet MRO Services Australia. “The new training and tooling includes horizontal stabiliser rear hinge bushing measurement training which relies on the precision use of a Subito bore gauge to check wear tolerances to a very high degree of accuracy,” GrantIngall further added.
Australia’s Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) in February 2020 approved ExecuJet MRO Services Australia to do line and heavy maintenance on all in-production types: Falcon 7X/8X, Falcon 900LX, and Falcon 2000LXS. CASA has also approved ExecuJet to service some of the out-of-production models, namely the: Falcon 50/50EX, Falcon 900/C/DX/EX/EX EASy and Falcon 2000/EX/LX.

Ingall said that ExecuJet recently completed the heavy maintenance C-checks on two Falcon 900EX aircraft. One is an Australian registered aircraft used by a mining company, meanwhile the other is a VIP aircraft operated by Papua New Guinea’s national carrier Air Niugini. The VIP aircraft is under FalconCare, a comprehensive Dassault Aviation maintenance cost program designed to help customers manage their maintenance budgets. Only factory-owned or Dassault-authorised MRO service centres are permitted to work on aircraft under the FalconCare program.
