ExecuJet MRO Services to Open New Facility in KL

Our Bureau - : Sep 14, 2022 - : 11:57 am

ExecuJet MRO Services Malaysia, a Dassault Aviation company, will soon start construction of its new purpose-built MRO facility at Kuala Lumpur’s Subang Airport, a development that reinforces Malaysia’s position as a center for business aviation in the region and caters to growing markets such as Vietnam.

The MRO firm has decided to build a larger facility to cater to the increasing demand for its services. “Construction is planned to commence within the next six weeks,” a company official said.

ExecuJet MRO Services, which is already Malaysia’s largest business aviation MRO, serves Dassault, Bombardier, and Gulfstream operators from across the Asia region and is certified by the CAA of Malaysia, US FAA, EASA, and many other international airworthiness authorities.

The new purpose-built MRO facility will be located in another area of the airport with runway access and a dedicated apron. The new facility will have a gross floor area of approximately 149,500 square feet including back shops that will further expand ExecuJet’s capabilities, as well as corporate offices and customer areas.

The facility’s aircraft hangar will be able to accommodate the largest business jets in development, such as the Dassault Falcon 6X and Falcon 10X. It will also incorporate environmentally friendly features such as an 85kW solar system and secondary water tanks to harvest rainwater for secondary usage, amongst others.

“The number of business jets in Asia, especially South-East Asia has continued to grow, despite the pandemic,” said Regional VP Asia for ExecuJet MRO Services Ivan Lim. “Business people have been turning to business aviation to meet their flying needs, because it is time-efficient with far fewer ‘touch points’ as compared to commercial aviation. ExecuJet MRO Services Malaysia has been expanding its capability and workforce to meet the continued growth in the market.”
