Jet Support Services, Inc. (JSSI), the leading provider of hourly cost maintenance programs for the business aviation industry, announced today at the European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition (EBACE), that Turkish operator, Genel Havacilik A.S, has enrolled its Bell 407 Helicopter onto the JSSI Premium engine program.

The JSSI Premium program for the Rolls-Royce 250-C47B engines is a comprehensive hourly cost maintenance program, covering scheduled and unscheduled events, as well as life limited components and more. Bell 407 operators also have the option of enrolling in the JSSI unscheduled engine program that provides 100% coverage for unscheduled maintenance, by making one simple payment each year, based on annual utilization.

“We continue to expand our market penetration into Turkey, and beyond, as more helicopter operators recognize the value that a JSSI program provides,” Kevin Thomas, senior vice president, business development and strategic planning for JSSI, commented. “Maintenance costs for helicopters are especially difficult to predict. Our clients not only receive a stabilized budget by enrolling onto a JSSI program, but they also benefit from the protection from unexpected expenses, all while the JSSI team of experienced technical advisors, act as advocates and advisors to the entire flight operation,” added Thomas.

Genel Havacılık A.S., [EBACE Stand #T056] is located in Istanbul, Turkey, and has been a leader in business aviation for more than 30 years, with experience in fixed/rotary wing aircraft operations and maintenance. Today Genel Havacılık A.S. is the largest company in its region in terms of maintenance and hangar capability as well as specialized FBO services on both airports in the Istanbul area.
