Nomad Technics has redelivered a Boeing BBJ owned and operated by Action Aviation following a 12-year inspection and landing gear overhaul, paired with cabin and avionics upgrades completed during the maintenance downtime.&nbsp;Notably, the company installed a Gogo Galileo FDX satcom system on the aircraft, which the company said is among the first such installations on a BBJ worldwide. Aero Visto reupholstered all seats and divans in a bespoke design as part of the cabin refresh.
Higher-resolution monitors were added to the in-flight entertainment system, which was upgraded with an app-based video-on-demand streaming system designed for the client. The cabin lighting system was replaced with multicolor LED mood lighting controllable via an app, and a new app-based moving map system was installed for use on cabin monitors and personal devices.
“The project was interesting and challenging to put together, but I think that’s something that made us win because the client saw how quickly and efficiently we can do things,” said Brigita Vildžiūnienė, director of sales for Nomad Technics. “Our responsiveness, honesty, and transparency built trust with the customer, and we carried that on throughout the project. They were involved in all the parts, even in the quotation phrase. It was a collaborative effort.”
Nomad Technics is the maintenance division of Nomad Aviation and is an EASA Part 145 approved organization providing maintenance, inspection, and non-routine repair work on Bombardier Globals and Challengers, as well as line and base maintenance on Airbus A320 family and Boeing 737NG and Max aircraft.
