The aircraft will be extensively examined for damage and wear that might not be evident at first sight to forecast any maintenance problems that could arise in the future. The extent of a ‘PPI’ depends upon the complexity of the aircraft. The major components will be checked, e.g. airframe, landing gear, cabin interior, engine systems, propeller fan blades and cylinders.

The customer is a long-term Gulfstream operator. 

The company also has maintenance contracts for three Bombardier Global 6000. On two of these privately-owned aircraft, AMAC will install an Aviation Clean Air (‘ACA’) system, which eliminates all pathogens throughout the aircraft by accelerating nature’s cleaning process without adding any chemicals. On one of them, AMAC will also carry out a cabin interior re-configuration. On the third Bombardier Global 6000, AMAC will perform 450/900 landing checks and a 15-month check at the same time.
