Boston-based MRO Pro Star Aviation recently completed a 120-month airframe inspection, landing gear overhaul, and other upgrades on an Embraer Phenom 300.&nbsp;This&nbsp;aircraft&nbsp;also required&nbsp;Pro Star’s technicians&nbsp;to perform a “low utilization” inspection on the engines, including borescoping, compressor washing, and performance runs, the MRO said.
“As an authorized Embraer service center, our technicians are OEM factory trained to the highest standards,” said Pro Star&nbsp;GM Sean Peterson. “We modify and service each aircraft as if it were our own. Our team is focused on delivering high-quality maintenance and installations to get you swiftly back in the air.”
Along with completing all of the Phenom’s required inspections on time and within budget, Pro Star modified the aircraft with Whelen Engineering Boom Beam high-intensity discharge taxi and landing lights and Concorde dual lead-acid batteries using supplemental type certificates for both modifications.
