MRO station of Hong Kog based Metrojet Limited recently completed an 8C inspection on a Gulfstream G650 aircraft. The check was the first of its kind performed in Hong Kong. The team of professional engineers from the Metrojet HK MRO conducted more than a hundred different maintenance tasks from nose to tail on the managed aircraft.

Our engineering team always strives to enhance their capabilities, provides a quality product and aims to deliver extensive and on-schedule inspection services to our customers at a competitive price. Building upon our successful first G650 8C inspection, we are delighted to have received a second 8C inspection event from a third-party operator.”
