The UAE General Civil Aviation Authority has extended Falcon Technic’s Approved Maintenance Organisation certificate to include Bombardier BD-700 120-month base maintenance inspections.
The approval covers heavy base checks up to the 120-month or 4,500-hour interval.

Falcon Technic in the UAE has been cleared by the UAE General Civil Aviation Authority to perform 120-month base maintenance on Bombardier BD-700 aircraft.

The BD-700 family, which includes the Global Express and Global 5000, is a long-range business jet series that requires specialised heavy maintenance. The approval covers base inspections up to and including the 120-month/4,500-hour check.

Falcon Technic can now carry out these heavy maintenance checks at its facility at Dubai’s Al Maktoum International Airport.

This approval gives our customers greater confidence that Falcon Technic can handle every stage of their Bombardier's maintenance needs.”
