Falcon Aviation Services yesterday opened a service centre for Embraer aircraft at Al Bateen Executive Airport in the capital.

The 106,000 square foot facility now makes Falcon one of the biggest service centres for executive jets in the region.

The Abu Dhabi-based company already provides maintenance, repair and operations for Eurocopter helicopters and Gulfstream G450 aircraft as well as aircraft interior and exterior cleaning, detailing and polishing. Earlier this week, Falcon announced a Dh100 million “completion centre” for personal aircraft at Al Maktoum International Airport at Dubai World Central.

The company also operates private jets and helicopters, and expects delivery by November of two Q400 NextGen turboprop aircraft from the Canadian aircraft manufacturer Bombardier.
