AMAC Aerospace announced that two Head of State aircraft arrived at the end of July in Basel, Switzerland. Furthermore, AMAC was awarded several new maintenance projects.
First, AMAC Aerospace welcomed an Airbus ACJ340 in late July in Basel. The Head of State aircraft stays for two months at AMAC’s headquarters to undergo a C-check. AMAC installs a Ka-Band system to ensure a seamless connectivity on board of the aircraft. The Airbus team of AMAC performs some minor modification cabin work and several rectifications inside the aircraft. A second Head of State aircraft arrived in late July in Basel. AMAC carries out a multiple C-check package on the Airbus A320.
AMAC Aerospace also was awarded further maintenance projects on four Airbus aircraft. A privately-owned Airbus ACJ320 arrived in late June and undergoes a 2C-check. A second Airbus ACJ320 arrived at the end of July. AMAC’s technicians carry out a multiple
C-check on the privately-owned aircraft. An Airbus ACJ319 arrived in July to undergo a 6-, 12-, 18- and 24-month check. AMAC’s Airbus team carries out a partial cabin refurbishment and a Ka-Band installation on the privately-owned aircraft. AMAC will open its gates for a second Airbus ACJ319. The privately-owned aircraft will undergo a 6-, 12- and 24-month check in Basel.
Completed project on a Bombardier Global XRS
The company has completed an 8C-check on a Bombardier Global XRS. The privately-owned aircraft was delivered by the end of February to undergo a maintenance check. While on ground, a cabin refurbishment was completed as well as avionics upgrades were carried out. The maintenance check required the removal of the stabilizer. AMAC’s dedicated Bombardier expert team accomplished the project on time and on budget. The aircraft has been released for its take-off to the painting shop after the 8C-check.
At the same time, a Bombardier Global Express has entered AMAC’s hangars to undergo a 750-, 1,500- and 3,000-hours inspection. Furthermore, AMAC carries out an ‘ADSB-Out’ installation as well as Service Bulletin (SB) and Airworthiness Directive (AD) tasks. The Global Express is not for the first time touching-down in Basel. A few years ago, the privately-owned aircraft underwent an 8C-check including a refurbishment. AMAC Aerospace has been also awarded to upgrade the connectivity system on a privately-owned Bombardier Global 6000. Since becoming an Authorized Service Facility (ASF) of Bombardier in Europe, more and more Bombardier aircraft are entering AMAC’s hangars in Basel.
