Skyservice, Canada’s leader in business aviation, has announced that after adding the Bombardier Global aircraft to its authorized service facility offerings it has successfully completed its first 120-month and 180-month inspections. The 180-month items were added to avoid costly downtime and interior removal at the 180-month interval.
The aircraft was completed on time and on projected budget.
The inspection included several avionics upgrades, including ADS-B out to comply with the January 2020 mandate per TSO 260 B. Several recommended and optional service bulletins were also completed during the extended downtime with the extra access gained during the 120-month and 180-month inspection, at a significant cost savings.
RAMM Aerospace of Montreal, which has operations within Skyservice’s Montreal facility, assisted with the interior removal and installation as well as the interior upgrades that included carpet, cabin sidewalls and bulkhead coverings. The cabin seats were reconditioned as well to further support the owner’s request to brighten up and update the interior.
RAMM and Skyservice worked with the principal and the design team to revitalize and refresh the interior.
With the close collaboration of Safran landing systems maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) in Oshawa, and Bombardier, the landing gear overhaul was completed ahead of schedule and on budget. This includes new bushings and bearings, as well as all service bulletin upgrades as part of the overhaul process, complete with a five-year warranty.
