ExecuJet Africa’s Maintenance Repair Organisation (MRO) facility at Mohammed Murtala International Airport in Lagos, Nigeria, has completed a first base maintenance check on a Hawker 800XP aircraft amidst high demand for the service. The Lagos MRO, an authorised service facility for Bombardier and Hawker Beechcraft, has additional aircraft due in for scheduled base maintenance checks, including another Hawker 800XP and a Bombardier Global Express.
Regarding the development, Steve Bothma, the Maintenance Director at ExecuJet Africa, said:
“Since operations began at our Lagos facility, it has been well received and continues to expand in line with the steady growth of business aviation in Africa. We are extremely proud of the MRO’s development and progress.”
