Bombardier announced today that it will begin construction later this month on a new Middle East aircraft service center to be located at Al Bateen Executive Airport (OMAD) in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The 120,000-sq-ft facility is expected to open in the second half of next year. Originally intended to be situated at Abu Dhabi International Airport (OMAA) when first planned in 2022, a Bombardier spokesman told AIN that during the planning and development phase it was determined that OMAD provided a more strategic location.

The facility will offer a 55,000-sq-ft hangar capable of accommodating Bombardier’s flagship Global 8000, along with a parts depot. It will offer a complete slate of aircraft services, including scheduled and unscheduled heavy maintenance, aircraft modifications, and AOG support. It is also expected to create some 100 aerospace jobs.
