Jet Aviation recently received approval from the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) to provide maintenance support to Falcon 900s registered in the Philippines. The Basel facility, which is a Dassault Falcon-authorized shop, is currently working to secure CAAP approval for the Falcon 2000 series.

“Our goal is to expand our scope of services to ensure we can support our customers in Southeast Asia who make transcontinental flights to Europe,” said Johannes Turzer, senior vice president and general manager of the Basel maintenance center. “We are pleased to extend this to aircraft owners and operators of aircraft registered in the Philippines.”

Jet Aviation Basel has in-house design and engineering departments, along with on-site cabinetry, upholstery, sheet metal, composite and paint shops. The organization can outfit jets as large as an Airbus A380 or the Boeing 747-8 and provides maintenance and repair services for other business jets. Besides Dassault Falcon, it is also a factory-approved service center for Airbus Corporate Jetliners, Boeing Business Jets, Bombardier Business Jets, Embraer Executive Jets and Gulfstream.
