ExecuJet MRO Services Awarded Industry-leading US FAA Certification for South Africa Repair Station
02 June 2021, JOHANNESBURG – ExecuJet MRO Services, the Lanseria-based corporate and VIP aircraft maintenance and repair business, has achieved US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certification.
This follows an intensive and comprehensive audit of ExecuJet MRO Services, its safety standards, processes, facilities and expertise by the FAA.
“The FAA certification is a valuable endorsement of our ongoing investment and focus on safety, quality and skills. It permits us to inspect, maintain and make alterations to US-registered aircraft, their engines, avionics, flight instruments and other accessories, at our Lanseria International Airport repair centre near Johannesburg, South Africa,” explained Vince Goncalves, ExecuJet MRO Services Vice President for Africa.
ExecuJet MRO Services’ South African facility provides maintenance support for numerous makes and marques of aircraft. It also holds a number of airworthiness authority approvals from civil aviation authorities across sub-Sahara Africa.
ExecuJet’s maintenance services are available on a 24-hour basis. This includes line and base maintenance activities as well as mobile repair services throughout the region for aircraft requiring support away from its main Lanseria facility.
“I would like to thank our team for their dedication and hard work to obtain this certification. Our operations have always complied with the required standards for FAR 145 certification and we’re delighted it has been formally recognised to this effect. The aviation industry relies on sound maintenance and we, as a provider, have a responsibility to ensure we do this to the highest standards,” said Mr Goncalves.
