Aviation Festival  www.terrapinn.com/AFA25/AsianAviation ExecuJet Haite’s maintenance center at Tianjin’s Binhai International Airport in China has completed 96-month checks on three Embraer Legacy 650 aircraft. The work on all three Embraer aircraft was performed simultaneously and within four months. One of the aircraft completed its heavy maintenance check in nine weeks.

The 96-month inspection is the most extensive on the Legacy airframe and entails over 3,000 labour-hours. This heavy check includes full removal of the cabin interior, down to the fuselage frames for structural inspection. Both the forward and ventral fuel tanks are also removed, as is the wing leading edges, flaps, landing gear and flight controls.

“Completing these highly complex projects in less than four months, further demonstrates our proficiency in managing and simultaneously performing multiple heavy base maintenance inspections while still ensuring that we keep within our customers’ demanding flight schedules and budgets,” says Paul Desgrosseilliers, general manager of ExecuJet Haite. “We will continue to strengthen our processes and procedures to improve our overall quality and minimise aircraft downtime.”

ExecuJet Haite is an Authorised Service Center for Embraer Executive Jets and provides maintenance support to various original equipment makers (OEMs) and aircraft types using certifications from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), the US FAA, European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), and several other national aviation authorities. The company has base and line maintenance centers at Beijing Daxing International Airport and Tianjin’s Binhai International Airport. It also has a line station at Beijing Capital International Airport.
