Over the past year, Dassault Aircraft Services has added tooling to perform 'B' level checks for Brazilian registered Falcons to both the Falcon 7X and Falcon 2000 family. Additionally, the Pre-Purchase Evaluation (PPE) program has been started in Sorocaba. The PPE is a program for those considering a pre-owned Falcon and includes a thorough physical evaluation of the aircraft, aircraft systems operational checks and a detailed record research.

Dassault's Sorocaba Service Center is also authorized to perform line maintenance and airframe inspections on all Falcon models except the Falcon 10, Falcon 20 and Falcon 200. In addition, the facility is qualified to provide engine maintenance on the CFE-738, Honeywell TFE731 series engines and Pratt & Whitney Canada PW307A, PW308C and PW307D models. specialized non-destructive testing (NDT) services, such as penetrant and eddy current testing can also be performed. A full service battery shop is available to repair, replace or recharge main and emergency batteries on Falcon and other aircraft models.

Following the opening of the Sorocaba Service Center in June 2009, Dassault Falcon Jet has continued to invest in the facility with increased manpower, spare parts and tooling. Sorocaba can dispatch an AOG team to support Falcon aircraft anywhere in South America, along with the parts and tools necessary to get the aircraft flying again with minimal delay.

Dassault will be located at Chalet 5116 during LABACE.
