Skyservice Business Aviation recently announced that its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) division has received the supplemental type certificate (STC) from Transport Canada for the installation of Aviation Clean Air’s (ACA) purification system inside Bombardier’s Challenger 300/350 and Global 5000/5500/6000/6500 Aircraft. ACA’s innovative airborne and surface purification solutions improve air quality throughout the aircraft, eliminating pathogens like COVID-19, removing allergens and destroying unpleasant odours without the use of harmful chemicals. The certification is confirmation that Skyservice continues to deliver best-in-class solutions to business aircraft owners.
“Taking a team approach, we worked collaboratively with ACA to develop a successful, high-quality, installation design that was approved by Transport Canada,” noted Paul Weeks, vice-president of Maintenance at Skyservice. “Working with Transport Canada and our expertise in Bombardier business aircraft resulted in a successful approval for the products installation, and ultimately brings one of the best clean air purification and decontamination products into Canada.”
ACA’s airborne ionization product takes approximately two to five days to install and costs range based on the number of units needed per size of aircraft. The components are easy to install and have minimal maintenance requirements making it popular for aircraft of all sizes.
“Skyservice is thrilled to add this STC to install ACA purification and sanitization solutions on two of the world’s leading aircraft lines,” commented Emlyn David, Skyservice president and chief executive officer. “We are proud to be part of this commitment to innovation which we believe helps to address the health and safety concerns aircraft owners are voicing when considering to fly.”
