Metro Business Aviation’s engine shop is moving from Luton Airport to larger premises at Farnborough Airport. Technical director Mick Adams said: “This move to Farnborough is ideal for our expansion into the

TFE 731 20/40/60 engine series, where we have recently been approved to conduct line maintenance.”

Marketing director Alan George added: “The Farnborough location positions us closer to our customer base and gives sufficient capacity for our planned expansion into other engine types during the next four to six months.”

Metro’s Stansted base has also been awarded authorised service centre for the Bombardier Challenger.

“This represents the latest step of our ongoing plan in building a solid relationship with Bombardier that will eventually lead to providing service and support for all their business aircraft,” said George.
