UAE GCAA says yes to Falcon Technic Gulfstream cover
With this new capability, Falcon Technic is able to support Gulfstream owners and operators directly from its Al Maktoum facility at Dubai World Central, reducing downtime and allowing aircraft to be serviced quickly.
The G450 and G550 are now part of Falcon's approved maintenance scope.

Falcon Technic, part of Alex Group Investment, has received official approval from the UAE General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) to provide line maintenance for Gulfstream G450 and Gulfstream G550 business jets.

The approval authorises Falcon Technic to perform line maintenance, defect rectification and scheduled inspections up to and including 12-month and 1A inspection limits on both aircraft types. The Gulfstream G450 and G550 are among the most popular long-range private jets in the world.

With this new capability, Falcon Technic is able to support Gulfstream owners and operators directly from its Al Maktoum International Airport facility at Dubai World Central, reducing downtime and allowing aircraft to be serviced quickly and efficiently without the need to reposition elsewhere.

“We're proud to add the Gulfstream G450 and G550 to our approved maintenance scope,” says Sultan Rashit Abdulla Rashit Al Shene, founder and chairman of Alex Group Investment. “These aircraft are widely operated across the region, and this approval enables us to support our customers with reliable, high-quality maintenance right here in Dubai.”

Located at the Mohammed Bin Rashid Aerospace Hub, Falcon Technic continues to grow its technical capabilities to meet the needs of business aviation operators across the UAE and beyond, with a strong focus on safety, quality and service excellence.
