ExecuJet MRO Services Malaysia will showcase its range of aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services at the three-day Selangor Aviation Show 2023, which opens tomorrow at Subang Airport’s Skypark Regional Aviation Centre. Malaysia’s largest business aviation MRO, ExecuJet confirms its participation as the country aims to capture half of the Asian MRO market and 5 percent of the global market by 2030.
“The growth of the business aviation industry in Asia—coupled with Malaysia’s highly skilled and qualified workforce in the aviation sector—has enabled our MRO capabilities to steadily grow,” said ExecuJet MRO Services regional v-p for Asia Ivan Lim.
Since Dassault Aviation acquired the ExecuJet MRO Services’ network in early 2019, ExecuJet’s Malaysia facility has steadily expanded its MRO service to include line and heavy maintenance on all models of Dassault Falcon aircraft still in production and most legacy models.
At the show, ExecuJet plans to tout its expanded range of MRO services, including airframe maintenance, cabin interior refurbishment, and avionics upgrades. Its maintenance facility at Subang Airport has earned certification from the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia, EASA, the FAA, and the Civil Aviation Administration of China along with other civil aviation regulators around the world. The company’s engineers and technicians perform maintenance on a wide range of business jets, including those from Dassault, Gulfstream, and Bombardier.
Separately, ExecuJet plans to promote its new purpose-built MRO facility at Subang Airport that it expects to open during the first half of next year. Now under construction, the facility will measure 149,500 sq ft, enough space to simultaneously accommodate 10 to 15 business jets of various sizes.
“In the first phase of the construction, we completed the hangar steel structure, the roof, and the reinforced concrete slab floor,” said Lim. “Other works in the hangar and annex building are progressing well and within the timeline we set.
“We are now entering the construction’s second phase which involves the exterior finishing works and interior works,” he added.
Once complete, the facility will feature what ExecuJet describes as huge hangar space, corporate and customer offices, recreational areas, an apron area, and back shops.
