HAITEC Aircraft Maintenance GmbH was today granted approval to perform Part-145 line maintenance on Gulfstream G650 private jets.
As an EASA Part-145 organization, HAITEC already holds approvals from Civil Aviation Organizations of Russia, United Arab Emirates, Azerbaijan, Bermuda and the FAA for a broad range of Boeing and Airbus aircraft, as well as Gulfstream business jets.
“Besides Line Maintenance for G650s, our Erfurt subsidiary HAITEC VIP Maintenance is now also capable of offering cleaning and storage for such jets in the heart of Germany. This new capability brings an added level of convenience to G650 operators in Europe as the number of maintenance providers with that approval is limited,” states Frank Rott, CEO of HAITEC.
The G650 approval is another milestone in HAITEC’s overall expansion strategy. In 2014, HAITEC announced a €30,000,000 expansion program over the next three years. The program includes the establishment of HAITEC VIP Aircraft Maintenance in Erfurt, the acquisition of the existing hangar (H900 at Hahn Airport), and purchase of the surrounding property for the construction of a second maintenance facility adjacent to the current facility. HAITEC is growing at a steady rate, preparing for the new 17,000 sqm hangar, which is set to be operational in summer 2016.
“We continue to widen our span of MRO services HAITEC can offer to commercial and VIP customers. In late summer, we are also expecting to receive our Gulfstream G650 approval for base maintenance. Our steady growth also puts us in a privileged position to offer new employment opportunities to qualified international aviation professionals in Erfurt and Hahn,” concludes Rott.
