In support of its expanding MRO and customer service activities, UK-based Pilatus and Tecnam aircraft dealer Oriens Aviation has moved to a larger facility at London Biggin Hill Airport.

“Demand for our aircraft sales and maintenance services is continually increasing,” stated company CEO Edwin Brenninkmeyer. “This larger base at London Biggin Hill offers [us] an excellent platform for growth.”

The company, which holds EASA and FAA Part 145 maintenance approval along with its UK CAA authorization, now occupies the recently-refurbished Hangar 170. The facility offers nearly 20,000 sq ft of space including workshops and modern offices to house the company’s maintenance and sales operations, an increase of 3,000 sq ft over its former location.

Oriens provides service for the Pilatus PC-24 light jet and PC-12 single-engine turboprop as well as serving as an authorized service center for the Cirrus SR20X. It plans to add the Tecnam P2012 Traveller to its service offerings in the near future with other Tecnam models to follow.

“We are delighted with the tremendous success Oriens Aviation is seeing here at the airport and we are pleased to support the company in its growth,” said Robert Walthers, Biggin Hill’s commercial director. “Oriens Aviation is a vital part of our business aviation ecosystem.”
