Hawker Pacific Asia delivers world-first Embraer Lineage 48 month inspection

Hawker Pacific, Asia Pacific's leading aircraft sales, services and product support company, has completed a world-first, 48-month inspection on an Embraer Lineage 1000 demonstrating the company's continued enhancement of its service centre capabilities. By performing the first 48-month inspection on a Lineage, Hawker Pacific has extended its already significant experience gained on the Embraer Legacy and Phenom family of jets.

The 48-month inspection was carried at Hawker Pacific's new facility at Seletar Aerospace Park, Singapore, with the assistance of Embraer Executive Jet's Customer Support Team. The program required complete removal of the corporate interior, detailed inspections and completion of customer requested tasks.

Tony Jones, Chief Operating Officer for Hawker Pacific Asia said the successful completion of the inspection is a significant milestone for the new facility in Singapore, and for the entire company. "The aircraft was delivered on time, on budget and met the customers' requirements. Competition was extensive for this program from both Europe and USA based companies so we are delighted to have delivered a great result for our customer and raise the bar in terms of showcasing capability at our new Singapore facility."

"We hold approvals for the complete range of Embraer Executive Jets and have developed a reputation for delivering premium levels of support to owners and operators across the Asia Pacific region. The continuous development of our network and skills are at the very core of our customer experience strategy, servicing a growing and dynamic market from convenient locations across the region."

Andre Sousa, Director of Customer Support and Services, Embraer Executive Jets – Asia Pacific added: "We celebrate the completion of the world-first 48-month inspection of a Lineage 1000 in Asia Pacific by Hawker Pacific, our Authorized Service Centre in Singapore since 2007. This achievement underscores the ability of our in-market customer service network in Asia Pacific to provide maintenance support at the highest level, across all our products in operation in the region."

The 48-month Embraer Lineage inspections were completed under the Enhanced Embraer Executive Care (EEC) program which provides a comprehensive maintenance support package to Embraer Executive Jet customers.

Hawker Pacific Asia is the first Embraer Authorised Service Centre in Asia Pacific certified for the full range of Embraer Executive Jets (Lineage 1000, Legacy 600, Legacy 650, Phenom 100 and Phenom 300).
