Satys has opened a new aircraft painting hangar at Dubai's Al Maktoum International Airport (OMDW). The announcement this week follows the signing of a memorandum of understanding in December between the French company and business aviation services group ExecuJet MRO Services.

According to Satys, it aims to offer an alternative to sending aircraft overseas for painting services, reducing costs and turnaround times for regional operators. The Middle East is seeing growth in the number of locally-based business aircraft.
