Business aviation services provider Metrojet has completed its first 4C maintenance check on a Gulfstream G650ER. Conducted at the company’s headquarters MRO facility in Hong Kong, the job was completed within the approved 11-day downtime and on budget.

This was accomplished despite the aircraft being required for three ad hoc flights during the scheduled maintenance period, with Metrojet’s maintenance team ensuring the big twinjet was really to go on 24-hour's notice. That arrangement, according to the company, kept the operator on schedule with no compromise to safety or quality.

“This inspection was an amazing experience for both our team and the flight crew, as we were able to complete the scheduled maintenance while not disrupting any of the flying trips in between,” said Phil Roberts, the facility’s operations manager. “Giving our clients peace of mind is always one of Metrojet’s goals."
