The UAE’s General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) has certified Aero-Dienst to provide support for locally registered aircraft as an approved maintenance organization. The Germany-based business aviation services group announced the approval on Tuesday at the MEBAA Show.

With GCAA’s CAR 145 certificate issued, Aero-Dienst intends to expand its maintenance, repair, and overhaul services in the Gulf state. Business aircraft fleet numbers and activity levels have continued to increase in both the UAE and neighboring Gulf states, it said.
