Citing growth in business aircraft activity in Southeast Asia, ExecuJet MRO Services has opened a larger maintenance, repair, and overhaul facility in Kuala Lumpur—a move the Malaysian company expects will be fully vindicated by rising demand this year. The 149,000-sq-ft complex is on the opposite side of Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (WMSA) from its previous base, providing the space it needs to expand the scope of its services and accommodating up to 15 aircraft at a time.
The Malaysian capital’s second airport, formerly known as Subang, is one of 13 locations worldwide for the South Africa-based group. It has operated there since 2009. The company’s portfolio of MRO capabilities expanded to include the Falcon business jet family when it was acquired by Dassault Aviation in March 2019, and it continues to support other types, including those made by Gulfstream and Bombardier.
