Jet Aviation Moscow Vnukovo has received EASA consent to pursue further approvals to expand its operations.

The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the Russian Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) have agreed to terms that allow Jet Aviation Moscow Vnukovo and others to seek EASA 145 aircraft approvals.

"The business aviation market in Russia is growing rapidly and we need to expand our maintenance capacity and service offerings accordingly," says Ian Ludlow, general director at Jet Aviation Moscow Vnukovo. "We're currently in discussions with a number of OEMs and intend to increase our certifying staff and obtain further approvals to expand our operations and services offered to customers."

As the first global business aviation maintenance company to enter the Russian market, Jet Aviation began operating at Moscow's Vnukovo airport in November 2007 and has offered line maintenance and AOG support throughout Russia since 2009.
