France's Aero Services has brought a Falcon 50EX into service to provide worldwide ambulance services. The company says the new aircraft will provide increased performance compared to the F50B.

"The Falcon 50EX also benefits from new avionics and a more modern cockpit," it adds. Aero Services says the global economic slowdown has been the spur for it to improve facilities and focus even more on client service and business opportunities.

"One of these sectors is global ambulance services," it adds. Aero Services' sister company at Paris Le Bourget, Groundforce One FBO, has brought into operation a new vip lounge featuring meeting rooms, Wi-Fi access and television.

"We are increasing attractions for clients. Aero Services is also offering a wide range of concierge services, including limousine reservation and flower deliveries," the company says.
