Harbour Air Of Vancouver To Provide MRO Services
Eclipse Aviation announced to its customers last week at EAA
AirVenture 2008 that Harbour Air of Vancouver, British Columbia,
will be Eclipse’s first Designated Service Center for the
Eclipse 500 in North America.
Harbour Air will provide Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO)
support for Eclipse 500 operators in Western Canada, with the
opportunity to expand into Eastern Canada and Alaska. Harbour Air
will also support service requirements for Eclipse 500 operators in
the Northwestern United States until the Eclipse Service Center
(ESC) network in the United States is fully implemented.
"We are very excited to offer our customers greater capacity for
service and modifications," said John Ricciardelli, Eclipse
Aviation’s vice president of ownership experience. "Harbour
Air offers complete MRO capability and a strong legacy in aviation.
They have supported Eclipse for some time, and I’m thrilled
to welcome them to our North American network."
Harbour Air’s facility at the Vancouver International
Airport will provide scheduled and unscheduled maintenance,
including critical Aircraft On Ground (AOG) and Mobile Response
Team (MRT) support. Technicians trained by Eclipse will also
perform Flight Into Known Icing (FIKI) and Avio NG 1.5
modifications.
Harbour Air will extend the existing ESC network, which includes
service centers in Albuquerque, NM; Gainesville, FL; and Albany,
NY. ETIRC Aviation oversees two Designated Service Centers in
Europe: JetSupport in Amsterdam, The Netherlands; and Aerlyper in
Madrid, Spain.
