Jet Aviation recently received approval from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) authorizing its MRO facility in Hong Kong to support 48- and 36-month inspections on N-registered Dassault Falcon 7X/8X and Falcon 900 series aircraft, respectively.

As a fully Authorized Dassault Falcon Line Service Center, this approval permits the Jet Aviation maintenance facility in Hong Kong to extend its existing FAA approval to further support 48-month inspections for Dassault Falcon 7X/8X aircraft and 36-month inspections for Dassault Falcon 900 series aircraft.

“Jet Aviation has a long standing relationship with Dassault Falcon and we are very pleased to extend our support to Falcon owners and operators of N-registered aircraft flying in the region,” said John Riggir, general manager of Jet Aviation's MRO and FBO facility in Singapore and vice president of the company's operations in Asia. “There has been an increase in demand for local, more accessible services and these approvals improve our ability to meet the needs of the Dassault Falcon customer base in Asia.”

Jet Aviation was named Best MRO (Singapore / Hong Kong) at the Asian Business Aviation Association’s (AsBAA) Icons of Aviation Asia Awards in November 2017. The company also has a 24/7 aircraft management and charter operation in Hong Kong that currently manages 29 aircraft, including a Dassault Falcon 7x.
