ExecuJet Aviation Group is expanding its managed fleet in Africa with the addition of a Falcon 900B, Hawker 800 and Challenger 604.

The refurbished Falcon 900B will be the first ExecuJet aircraft to be based in Luanda, Angola, while the other two aircraft will be located at Lanseria international airport, Johannesburg. The Hawker 800 and Challenger 604 aircraft will both be available for charter.

Flight ops director Gavin Kiggen comments: “We are pleased to be increasing our fleet in Africa and expanding our aircraft management services across the continent. We expect the Challenger 604 to be extremely popular, as the aircraft is capable of non-stop flights to a variety of destinations in Africa.

“The Hawker 800 will provide our customers with a charter aircraft for non-stop flights to most sub-Saharan destinations.”
