TAG Aviation’s Maintenance Services Centre in Geneva has completed its first 60-month check on a Bombardier Global* 6000 aircraft. The aircraft which is owned by a private customer underwent its first heavy maintenance check which included routine inspections and repairs, as well as a deep clean of the aircraft’s cabin.
This important major maintenance milestone event marks the first time TAG Geneva’s highly trained technicians have performed a 60M inspection on a Global* 6000 aircraft since their status as a Bombardier Authorised Service Facility (ASF) was extended in May 2018 to also include Global* business jets.
“As a recently Authorised Service Facility for Global aircraft, we are proud to have completed our first 60-month maintenance event on a Global* 6000 aircraft,” said Franck Madignier, President Maintenance and FBO Services, TAG Aviation Europe “We look forward to welcoming future operators of Bombardier Global* aircraft and pride ourselves on developing relationships with aircraft manufacturers and suppliers and to meeting maintenance programme deliveries on time for each one of our valued customers.”
