Bombardier Business
Aircraft reaffirmed its tip-to-tail OEM expertise by
announcing its Service Centre Network has completed
over 200 96-month heavy inspections on Challenger
business jets.
The 96-month
inspection on the Challenger business jet is one of
the most in-depth maintenance events in the
aircraft's lifecycle, which comes due during its
eighth year of service and requires a thorough
inspection of the airframe, structure and landing
gear. Customers benefit from the Service Centre
Network's comprehensive capabilities and
flexibility, as well as on-site parts inventory and
engineering support. They can also maximize their
maintenance event to complete additional work during
the downtime, such as paint, installation of
in-flight connectivity, avionics upgrades or
interior refurbishment.

"This milestone
underscores our customers' trust and confidence in
Bombardier Business Aircraft's industry-leading
know-how," said
Jean-Christophe
Gallagher,
Vice President and General Manager, Customer
Experience. "As the aircraft manufacturer, our level
of expertise is unrivalled on the 96-month
inspection, one of the most comprehensive in the
aircraft's lifetime."
As Bombardier
Business Aircraft's fleet continues to grow, so does
its award-winning Service Centre Network, with
additional Customer Response Team trucks in the
U.S., a brand new Tianjin Service Centre, and a new
London-area Service Centre at London Biggin Hill
Airport. The Network is equipped to support
Bombardier Learjet, Challenger and Global business
aircraft and is connected to Bombardier Business
Aircraft's 24/7 Customer Response Centre and
world-class Customer Support Team.
With over 1,600
Challenger aircraft in the installed base, the
in-service fleet has performed more than 4,300,000
landings and logged over 7,300,000 flight hours.
Designed to facilitate in-flight meetings,
Challenger aircraft have set the business aviation
standard for reliability, efficiency and
productivity for over 30 years. A Challenger
business jet is more than a means from A to Z - it's
a boardroom in the sky. These aircraft are leaders
in their respective segment and are the backbone of
many corporate fleets. |
