May 23, 2018: RUAG Aviation recently completed an 8C check on a Bombardier Global Express XRS to full customer satisfaction. The downtime for the heavy maintenance inspection was optimised and included an upgrade to Satcom and WiFi communication technology. The project was completed at the aircraft services provider’s facilities at Munich- Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany. RUAG Aviation is a Bombardier Authorised Service Center.
“Customers have the opportunity to enhance their aircraft’s productivity, even during the downtimes required by heavy maintenance inspections like this 8C check,” states Ralf Ott, senior manager sales and customer support. “Combining the scheduled visit with additional services from our one- stop shop portfolio is a very real and effective way to save time and costs while also developing further passenger options to enhance growth,” he explains further.
