WESTERN AIRCRAFT RENEWED AS DASSAULT FALCON JET AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER

Western Aircraft, a Greenwich AeroGroup company, has successfully renewed its agreement with Dassault Falcon Jet Corp, for its 23rd year maintaining its status as an Authorized Service Center (ASC).

Since its original accreditation as a Heavy Maintenance Repair and Overhaul (MRO) Service Center in 2001, Western Aircraft has significantly grown in both its scale and breadth of services provided. The company offers a wide array of services, including maintenance, avionics enhancements with cutting-edge Gogo Avance Air to Ground system installations, and detailed interior refurbishments and updates. They are also skilled in specialized airframe modifications like dry bay modifications. Impressively, Western Aircraft has accomplished more than 130 C-checks, representing the most thorough inspection available for all Falcon models.

“We are honored to have our authorization with Dassault Falcon Jet extended,” said Austin Shontz, vice president and general manager for Western Aircraft. “Our commitment to excellence and quality service aligns with the esteemed standards of Dassault Falcon Jet.”

With a team of factory-trained experts, Western Aircraft provides its services to a diverse clientele throughout the Western United States and Canada.

Western Aircraft, Inc., a Greenwich AeroGroup company, has received Commuter Air Carrier Authorization from the Department of Transportation, paving the way for the company to provide scheduled passenger operations.

Western Aircraft will be using next-generation Pilatus PC-12 aircraft for its scheduled operations, with a focus on routes between Honolulu and Lanai in the State of Hawaii where it currently performs on-demand air taxi operations as Lāna‘i Air.

“We are thrilled to receive our Commuter Air Carrier Authorization from the DOT,” said Western Aircraft’s Vice President for Aircraft Sales and Charter Management Phil Winters. "Our entire team has been working hard to prepare for these operations, and we look forward to supplementing our existing Lāna’i Air operations with scheduled passenger flights.”

With this approval, Western Aircraft becomes one of only 35 operators in the United States that have Commuter Air Carrier Authorization. The ongoing schedule for these operations is being finalized and Western Aircraft anticipates ramping up the flight schedule in the near future.

 

Western Aircraft, a Greenwich AeroGroup company, announced that it recently received a renewed Authorized Service Center (ASC) contract from Dassault Falcon Jet Corp.

Western Aircraft received its first designation as a Heavy Jet Service Center in 2001 and maintains broad-ranging capabilities from maintenance services to avionics retrofits including Collins ProLine 21, Honeywell Primus Elite integrated flight decks and Gogo Avance L5 system installations. It also offers the latest in Aviation Clean Air Ionization Purification System installations on most Falcon models, along with full interior retrofits and modifications, including wood, seats and other soft goods.

“We are very proud of our longstanding relationship with Dassault Falcon Jet,” said Austin Shontz, vice president and general manager for Western Aircraft. “In fact, we are celebrating 20 years as a Falcon ASC this year. When customers come to Boise for service they know that we will provide them with the highest standards of quality and service that they would expect to receive from a Dassault Falcon Jet ASC.”

Western Aircraft’s technicians are factory-trained and the company boasts a large customer base from the Western U.S. and Canada. In 2018, Western Aircraft announced that it had completed its 100th Falcon C-Inspection, which is the largest maintenance event on a Falcon aircraft. Since that time, Western has completed an additional 18 C-Inspections.
