AMAC Aerospace has a dedicated hangar in Basel for supporting business jets such as these Bombardier Challengers.

AMAC Aerospace recently inaugurated a 44,130-sq-ft engineering center at its headquarters complex in Basel, Switzerland, to help meet growing demand for its aircraft MRO and modification services. The three-floor structure provides dedicated space for multiple disciplines, including mechanical design for stress and structures, systems, cabinets, production engineering, avionics and electrical engineering, technical documentation, and airworthiness.

With more than 160 engineers based onsite, AMAC claims to be one of the largest aviation engineering departments in Europe, supporting both airliners and business aircraft up to the size of a Boeing 747. So far this year, the team has delivered more than 160 approved modifications and has more than 50 other projects underway. The scope of work spans supplement type certificate changes including installations of satellite communications antennas and cabin interior outfitting.
