Bombardier has designated Comlux Completion USA as an official AOG/line maintenance facility for its Learjet, Challenger and Global product lines. The approval was confirmed yesterday at the end of a long period in which the Canadian airframer evaluated the company’s training and equipment infrastructure in Indianapolis, Indiana.
The aircraft management and charter fleet of the Swiss-based Comlux group already includes five Global Express jets (comprising three Global XRSs, a Global Express and a Global 5000), three Challenger 605s and a pair of Challenger 850s, in addition to four Airbus Corporate Jetliners (ACJs), a Dassault Falcon 2000 and a Hawker Beechcraft Hawker 850. Two of the Global Expresses have been delivered in the past year, along with two of the ACJs, and the operator is due to receive a fifth ACJ by the end of 2009–increasing the fleet by around a third during one of the industry’s most severe downturns ever. The company is now seeking European Part 145 approval to provide maintenance for the ACJ family.
