Embraer Executive Jets announced today, during the 11th edition of the Latin American Business Aviation Conference and Exhibition (LABACE), which is being held at Congonhas Airport, in São Paulo, that it is expanding its customer support and service network into the Brazilian Northeast.
AeroMecânica, located at Coroa do Avião airfield, in Igarassu, metropolitan Recife, will be the first authorized service center for line maintenance, scheduled inspections, and remote services for Phenom 100 and Phenom 300 jets, in the region. Customers in the region already have the support of a co-located Embraer field service engineer.
“Expanding the service offerings is part of a strategic move to support the current and future fleet of Embraer business jets in Brazil,” said Edson Carlos Mallaco, vice president customer support and services, Embraer Executive Jets. “Having a dedicated team to provide better support is a commitment we have with our customers in the Northeast region.”
“The authorization of our service center in the Northeast reinforces our commitment to Embraer and its customers, by offering greater convenience of maintenance services for Phenom jets in the region,” said Luiz Carlos Benetti, general manager, AeroMecânica.
AeroMecânica has also been the Embraer authorized service center in the city of Curitiba for the Phenom jets, since 2011. The national service network is complemented by Algar Aviation, in the city of Belo Horizonte, Globo Aviação, in Brasília, and Voar Aviação, in Goiânia, as well as Embraer-owned service centers in the cities of São José dos Campos and Sorocaba, in the State of São Paulo.
