Metrojet Engineering Clark (MEC), the Philippines-based Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) station of Hong Kong-based Metrojet, has welcomed the fifth aircraft to park in its new state-of-the-art hangar facility since the commencement of operations in May 2021. Since the government of the Philippines eased the hotel quarantine measures for fully vaccinated inbound travellers earlier this year, MEC has benefited by receiving multiple maintenance and hangar parking enquiries.
“Our MEC team of professionals was grateful to have a busy working environment under the arduous pandemic times. Under the present quarantine-free entry to the Philippines for fully vaccinated foreign nationals, we believe that flying activities will resume, and more private jet users will come and experience our excellent parking and maintenance services at very competitive pricing,” said Sarith Vaikuntan, General Manager of Metrojet Engineering Clark.
The 7,100 m2 Metrojet Engineering Clark hangar has the capacity to accommodate up to 10 long-range business jets including Boeing Business and Airbus Corporate jets. The facility has also obtained several authority approvals from the US (FAA), Philippines (CAAP), the Cayman Islands (CAACI), the Qatar (QCAA), the Isle of Man (IoM), and the San Marino (SMAR), to serve aircraft with different registrations in the region.
Established in 1997, Metrojet as part of the Kadoorie Group, pioneered business aviation services in Hong Kong and remains one of the foremost safe and customer-focussed business jet operators and maintenance providers in the Asia Pacific region. The company provides all-inclusive aircraft management, charter, maintenance, and aviation consultancy services to our growing business aviation customer base.
Metrojet Engineering Clark currently operates a 7,100 m2 hangar providing both hangar and ramp parking and a fully authorised repair station with approvals from the Civil Aviation Authority of The Philippines (CAAP), The United States Federal Aviation Administration (The U.S. FAA), the Cayman Islands CAA, the Qatar QCAA, the Isle of Man IoM, and the San Marino SMAR. Metrojet Engineering Clark is a well-developed MRO facility designed to augment both heavy and line maintenance capabilities in the Asia Pacific region.
