Aircraft maintenance with the convenience of a local, on-airport facility

Maintaining your fleet of charter aircraft is key to offering the high-quality services that private leisure and business travellers demand from the industry – but having to ground these aircraft can affect your bottom line. Fortunately, top private airports are now offering on-site maintenance services and support, providing your company with an efficient solution.
These services, carried out by highly trained and experienced mechanics and their teams, aim to:
  • Perform maintenance as quickly as possible without having to transport the aircraft off-site to a more distant location.
  • Save costs on aircraft maintenance by utilizing world-class on-site facilities.
  • Ensure that minor as well as major installations, refurbishments and repairs can be completed with minimal downtime and disruption to your services.
  • Provide highly flexible services as and when they are required, including pre-purchase inspections.
  • Ensure maximum convenience by keeping all repairs on-site and close to your aircraft’s hangar space.

Are you changing the oil in your aircraft often enough?

As with your vehicle, your aircraft requires regular oil changes in order to run safely and maintain optimal performance – but knowing exactly when to change your oil can be difficult. The general rule of thumb is to perform an oil change every four months or 50 flight hours – whichever you achieve first. It’s also a good idea to change the oil if elevated wear metals are detected, or if your aircraft has recently undergone engine maintenance.
The reason for the 50 flight hour/four month change is simple – by this point, your oil has become contaminated with the byproducts of engine use, which include sulfur, nitrogen oxides, carbon, water and other materials.
Rather than breaking down the oil’s lubricating properties, these contaminants themselves are the real problem. They have highly corrosive properties and, when they build up to a sufficiently high concentration, they can damage your crankshaft, camshaft, gears and lifters, causing serious damage to your engine and creating a real safety issue. In addition to preventing this, a new oil change restores the necessary levels of acidic neutralizers in your aircraft’s oil which protect your engine.
If your aircraft is due for an oil change, we also recommend that you use this opportunity to inspect and replace your oil filters. This will give you a better indication of your aircraft’s engine health and provide better protection against corrosion.
