AMAC Aerospace new projects coming to Basel

AMAC Aerospace Basel starts 3 new projects: a substantial project on a Bombardier Global XRS, a Bombardier Global 6000 and another one on an Airbus ACJ318.

The privately-owned Global XRS arrived at the end of February and is undergoing a 120-month inspection in Basel, Switzerland. Besides the maintenance check, AMAC Aerospace will carry out a partial cabin interior refurbishment and avionics upgrade to Primus Elite and ‘ADSB-Out’ (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast). The refurbishment will comprise the re-work of the seats, divans and carpet according to the customer’s requirements.

“We are very proud to have received this project and are eager to prove once more our dedication to the details in our workshops. We look forward to bringing to life the concept of our customer by using fine materials and installing the latest technologies,” comments Christian Hackhausen, Senior Supervisor Aircraft Maintenance and supervisor of the project.

A Global 6000 will enter AMAC’s hangar in April. The privately-owned Global 6000 will undergo a 15- and 30-month check. Within a 1000h check AMAC will carry out SB (Service Bulletins) tasks. AMAC is looking forward to welcoming this new client in Basel, Switzerland.

The second project comprises the landing gear overhaul on an Airbus ACJ318. The Middle East customer will bring its aircraft by the end of summer, 2020.

“Despite the challenging times we are all going through, be it the logistical or man-power issues, we are working hard to implement all our customers requests and to deliver the running projects with a low ground time, as always. Currently, we receive many requests for aircraft disinfection, mostly on short notice, which we are happy to carry out for our customers and partners” explains Alexis Ott, Director Maintenance Sales & Key Account Management.
