São José dos Campos, Embraer has appointed ExecuJet Aviation Group, in Dubai (UAE), as a new Embraer Authorized Service Center (EASC) for the Legacy 600 and Legacy 650 executive jets. ExecuJet will provide scheduled and unscheduled maintenance services at Dubai International Airport.

“We are delighted to provide Legacy 600 and Legacy 650 executive jet customers in the Middle East with a new alternative for their maintenance needs,” said Antonio Martini Neto, Embraer Vice President – Customer Support and Services, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. “As the fleet of Embraer super midsize and large executive jets grows in the region, with nearly 25 aircraft in operation, the naming of one more authorized service center in the UAE marks the Company‘s commitment to offer a comprehensive and high-level support structure to our customers.”

This appointment coincides with last week’s delivery of the first Legacy 650 large executive jet in the region. It also reinforces the Embraer Customer Support and Services network in the Middle East, which now has authorized service centers in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, and a dedicated spare parts distribution center in Dubai.

“ExecuJet welcomes the opportunity to extend its support to the Embraer Legacy 600 and Legacy 650 aircraft, which will be served out of our newly acquired 5000 m2 hangar situated next to our existing facility at Dubai International Airport. ExecuJet currently holds Legacy 600 and Legacy 650 line and base maintenance authorizations with National Airworthiness Authority approvals,” stated Nick Weber, Maintenance Director, ExecuJet Middle East.
