Dassault Aviation’s ExecuJet MRO Services Middle East has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Satys Aerospace, which is building a dedicated aircraft paint facility at Al Maktoum International Airport at Dubai South. Under the MOU, Satys will offer painting services for ExecuJet customers after the facility opens in the first quarter of 2025, eliminating the need to fly aircraft to Europe for paint work.

Satys and Dassault Aviation will also explore joint marketing opportunities, and ExecuJet will be able to offer Satys’ painting services for operators of Dassault, Bombardier, Embraer, and Hawker business jets. In addition to MRO work, the ExecuJet facility specializes in cabin refurbishments and it can manage and provide oversight for livery projects.
