Will Serve As Base For "GoTeam" For Mobile Response
Dassault Falcon's newest Satellite Service Station recently
opened, one month ahead of schedule, at West Palm Beach Airport
(KPBI) in Florida. DAS - West Palm Beach is authorized by the FAA
to perform "A" inspections up to the "4A+" inspection on the Falcon
50, Falcon 2000 and Falcon 900 family of aircraft as well as the
Falcon 7X. EASA approval is expected within the next 30 days.
Operators can contact our DAS - Wilmington facility to schedule
their aircraft for maintenance.
"This facility allows us to offer expanded service for all
operators but will be especially appreciated by operators in the
Eastern United States and Central and South America," said Bob
Sundin, Senior Vice President of Dassault Aircraft Services.
"Dassault Falcon has been aggressively expanding our 'footprint of
service' and this is a critical piece to our strategy."
In addition to the service station, a Falcon AOG 'GoTeam' is
also located at the facility. A 'GoTeam' provides rapid mobile
response directly to an aircraft location with the parts, tooling
and personnel necessary to get an operator's Falcon flying with
minimal delay. AOG response time will now be reduced as the 'Go
Team' will be able to respond within the region in a couple of
hours.
The facility in West Palm is part of a global support system
which includes similar stations in St. Louis, Missouri;
Luton-London, U.K., Rome, Italy, Moscow, Russia and Nice, France.
The West Palm Beach facility has about $500,000 in tooling,
equipment and Falcon spares in addition to a hangar, shop and
offices for employees and customers.
