Western works wisely to deliver Legacy and Phenom
In addition to the inspection on the Legacy 500, Western Aircraft interior technicians replaced all of the interior seating at the request of the customer. The team has also overhauled a Phenom 100 in recent weeks.

Western Aircraft has recently completed its first 12-month maintenance repair and overhaul inspection on an Embraer Legacy 500 and its first 120-month inspection on an Embraer Phenom 100.

Western was named an Embraer Executive Jets authorised service centre in late 2018. It provides full maintenance support of Phenom 100/300 and Legacy 450/500 aircraft and line maintenance for Legacy 600 and 650 aircraft.

“Our team has been diligently training, and it feels good to have these two major Embraer inspections under our belts,” says director of sales and marketing Kerry Heiss. “We have been in this business for more than 60 years, but we continue to build upon our experience, develop new capabilities and broaden our reach to new customers.”
