New Farnborough line station expands Signature TECHNICAir's European support network

Signature TECHNICAir, the MRO division of Signature Flight Support, has expanded its maintenance support network in Europe with the addition of a new line station and Mobile Service Unit (MSU) location at the Farnborough Airport in England.

Farnborough Airport has become one of the UK's busiest and most prestigious business and general aviation airports and serves as a convenient gateway to the nation’s capital. The expansion of TECHNICAir’s presence to include the airport ensures based and transient operators will have access to consistent and reliable aircraft line maintenance, 7 days a week.

TECHNICAir’s Farnborough-based technicians are capable of performing minor aircraft maintenance, clearing defect lists, preventative checks, as well as performing oxygen and nitrogen service. Furthermore, extensively equipped Mobile Service Units expand the geographic coverage of the Farnborough base to include Southampton and the Midlands, enabling both proactive aircraft maintenance and Aircraft on Ground (AOG) troubleshooting and repair.

The new location at Farnborough Airport compliments Signature TECHNICAir’s existing holdings throughout the United Kingdom, including its primary service center at Bournemouth Airport which specializes in Cessna Citation, Embraer, and Hawker aircraft models. This is further supplemented by additional line station and mobile service teams based at London- Biggin Hill Airport, London-Luton Airport, and Manchester Airport.

“With 8 fully equipped mobile service vans, 15 dedicated engineers, and operating from 5 UK airports, Signature TECHNICAir offers unrivalled AOG and line maintenance assistance to business and general aviation” said Andy Preston, Managing Director of Signature TECHNICAir EMEA. “Our scale, mobility, and expansive capabilities have led hundreds of European-based and transient operators to trust TECHNICAir to address their aircraft maintenance needs.”

“We are pleased to welcome Signature TECHNICAir to Farnborough Airport" said Richard Wittels, Business Development Manager of Farnborough Airport. "Their offering will certainly enhance the excellent maintenance services already onsite."
