Jet Aviation Basel performs first 96-month inspection on an Embraer Legacy 600
Jet Aviation Basel is performing its first-ever 96-month inspection on an Embraer Legacy 600. The aircraft is operated by the Prague-based aircraft management and charter group Grossmann Jet Service.
Jet Aviation Basel inducted an Embraer Legacy 600 from Grossman Jet Service in April 2013 for its 96-month inspection. This is Jet Aviation’s first inspection of this magnitude to be performed on an Embraer Legacy 600. Its dedicated team of experienced professionals is utilizing the company’s enhanced planning and execution processes to manage the 96-month inspection, developed as part of their continuous improvement initiatives.
“We are thrilled to forge ahead with our Embraer maintenance support,” says Johannes Turzer, vice president and general manager of the Maintenance Center at Basel. “Our dedicated maintenance professionals are highly trained in the latest Embraer technologies. As a newly appointed Authorized Service Center for Embraer, we have assured access to parts and training by the manufacturer, and can now provide our customers warranty support in addition to aircraft upgrades, paint and interior refurbishment services.”
Adds Grossmann Jet Service CEO Dagmar Grossmann, “Jet Aviation Basel has a long-established reputation for doing quality work, backed by numerous OEMs. We are pleased to entrust our aircraft to their care.”

Grossman Jet Service currently operates a Legacy 600 and a Hawker 900 XP. They will add a Gulfstream G550 to their operation in 2013.
