Dassault Aviation is investing in a wider global maintenance footprint with modernized and expanded MRO factory-service facilities, and more resources flowing toward authorized facilities. Since 2019, the network has approximately doubled in size to 40 factory service centers and 21 authorized facilities. Among the benefits of this expanded network, Dassault is moving the capability to perform major inspections and upgrades closer to customers—all with one uniformly high standard of excellence. The company is expanding the locations that can perform major C checks and the installation of the latest technologies, including the Easy IV flight deck, FalconEye Combined Vision System, and the FalconConnect high-speed Internet connectivity package.
Jean Kayanakis, SVP, Worldwide Falcon Customer Service & Service Center Network, commented: “Our fleet is global, and our service must be global, as well. By constantly investing in new facilities and the skills of our people, we are making it easier for customers to base and operate Falcons anywhere.”
Here are some of the most recent steps Dassault is taking to further strengthen MRO support.
The entire Dassault MRO network has been gearing up for more than a year to perform these all-encompassing inspections on the 7X fleet, including by providing on-site structural engineers to speed the process if repairs are required. Customers now have more options on where to take their aircraft for C checks, including Dassault’s long-standing facilities in Paris-Le Bourget, Bordeaux and Little Rock, AR or newer locations closer to their home base. This expansion is part of the company’s strategy to maximize customer choice and convenience.
Planning and preparation for the 2C checks will also benefit the Falcon 8X fleet, which will start their first C checks in 2023 and several are already planned into factory-owned facilities later this year.
