EBAS celebrates first anniversary at Diamond Hangar with 8C Global inspection

EBAS are celebrating the anniversary of their relocation to the Diamond Hangar at London Stansted Airport with the arrival of their first 8C inspection on a Bombardier Global Express business jet.

The inspection which is due after 10 years of operation represents a significant milestone for the company and will harness all their experience and capabilities to provide detailed overhaul and assessment of the current airframe, landing gear and engine condition. In addition, EBAS will upgrade the existing avionic installation to incorporate full Batch 3 and FANS 1/A+ compatibility so enabling full compliance with future navigation and communication standards.

EBAS have experienced year on year growth since Mark Abbott founded the business at Oxford Airport in 2005, in response to a growing need for high quality Bombardier Challenger servicing. The company has rapidly developed into one of Europe's leading EASA Part-145 approved MRO facilities. Now serving a large fleet of Global and Challenger aircraft, the Diamond Hangar's size and significant infrastructure presents the ideal facility to support EBAS' continuing growth and development in a prime location for business aviation.

Mark Abbot, director, “Winning the 8C inspection is the culmination of a lot of hard-work and effort and represents the next phase in the development of EBAS and its mission to provide the highest levels of support and maintenance to all operators and owners of Bombardier business jet products. We have a great team here at the Diamond Hangar and we thank everyone who has helped us during our transition phase.”

EBAS will be exhibiting at EBACE 2014 on stand 6149 with the aviation hub partners.
