The revision extends the intervals between stops from 600 flight hours and/or 12 months and multiples to 800 flight hours or 12 months and multiples. Most of the tasks with double intervals were also optimized to the longest period. This is a 33% maintenance interval improvement, which is almost double the industry average. To Phenom series customers, this significant improvement equates to less downtime, lower maintenance costs, a long economic life, and more time in the air. The improvement was only made possible by the performance of the Phenom fleet over the last decade. More than one year of engineering analysis confirmed that the customers of these aircraft can fully benefit from the high availability of the fleet for their even better convenience and greater flexibility. "Conceived as clean-sheet designs to be the best in their respective classes, the Phenom 100 and 300 series aircraft were built for high utilization. Now, eleven years after the first delivery, with a fleet of over 900 jets in operation, our customer support and engineering team can reaffirm, once again, that our products are even better than the initial specification," said Johann C. Bordais, President & CEO, Embraer Services & Support. The Phenom fleet has accumulated more than 1.7 million flight hours and 1.4 million cycles since the first delivery of the Phenom 100 in December 2008. Embraer's business jet operators are supported by a proven global services and support organization and its award-winning network of more than 70 owned and authorized service centers, complemented by a 24/7 Contact Center at its headquarters in Brazil. The Scheduled Maintenance Requirements for the Phenom jets were developed to meet the specific needs of business aviation and are based on the Maintenance Steering Group (MSG-3) methodology. The methodology aims to preserve and restore the inherent safety and reliability levels of the aircraft and to build a knowledge base for design and maintenance improvement. The main benefits of this methodology include higher aircraft availability and overall cost reduction to keep the aircraft in ideal operating conditions. https://www.aviationpros.com/aircraft/business-general-aviation/press-release/21147803/embraer-embraer-boosts-phenom-maintenance-to-800-flight-hours Back to Top Jet Maintenance Solutions becomes a member of EBAA Jet Maintenance Solutions (JET MS), a global provider of integrated aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul solutions for business and regional aviation has become a proud member of the European Business Aviation Association (EBAA), the leading organization for operators of business aircraft in Europe.

The demand was the result of flight departments taking advantage of reduced flight schedules due to the COVID-19 pandemic to improve their operations by implementing SMS software and improving or developing operations manuals. "We have had surprisingly robust demand in 2020, especially considering the negative effects the pandemic has had on business aviation activity overall," said AviationManuals CEO Mark Baier. "Operators showed a lot of initiative and foresight using the additional time they had available to review and improve the way they operate," he added. As the pandemic continues to spread, operators are recognizing the need for better support tools to help manage the new and unique impacts of COVID-19. Several AviationManuals' product categories including Health Travel Preparedness, Organizational Changes and Metrics Reporting have all seen increases in demand over recent months. "Our advisors have been remarkably busy helping flight departments and FBOs, particularly with ARC SMS software and emergency response plans. Many operators also took the time to develop and update their flight operations and maintenance manuals," Baier added. Compared to 2019, the first half of 2020 saw considerably increased business requirements for digital flight department tools as companies continue to seek to improve the way they operate. The first half expansion followed exceptionally strong growth last year as companies continued to improve the way they operate. New Products and Complimentary Pandemic Resources The market strength in the first six months of 2020 allowed the company to grow its team and improve its offerings with new Risk Assessment Tool features, a new Maintenance Manual, as well as an enhanced ERP. AviationManuals' growing team also allowed it to support the industry by providing complimentary resources for flight, ground, and FBO operations through a series of complimentary whitepapers and guides. The aim was to help operators deal with this pandemic as well as future unforeseen crises.

Boeing's 737-800BCF and 767-300BCF have emerged as prime beneficiaries, leaving the company searching for more production capacity at a time when the business already controls 90 percent of industry sales. The programs received a further boost during last week's "virtual" Farnborough International Airshow, known as FIA Connect, when Boeing announced a contract on Wednesday calling for DHL Express to add four 767-300BCFs and another on Thursday with Aircraft Finance Germany covering two 737-800BCFs. In an interview with AIN during the FIA Connect event, Boeing Converted Freighters interim director Jens Steinhagen explained that the reasons for the surge in activity largely lie with the now substantial size of airplanes suitable for conversion and the resulting declines in cost for the airframes. In fact, values have dropped an average of about 15 percent, depending on the model and age of the airplane. "We are seeing the parking of a large portion of the passenger fleet resulting in a lack of belly capacity, which drives up cargo rates and improves the case for conversions and also creates a strong need for dedicated freighters," he said. "So all that is driving a surge in the conversion market and we're definitely experiencing that in the increased customer interest." Steinhagen said he thought the surge in activity would last for years rather than months, not only based on projections for a multi-year recovery for the airline industry but on the likely prospect that customers that normally wouldn't gravitate toward online ordering will continue the practice now that they've seen its convenience benefits. To date Boeing has collected orders and commitments for 132 of the BCF version of the 737-800s and has converted 34. As demand increases, the need for production capacity undoubtedly will follow, and last month's inauguration of a 737 conversion facility in China at Guangzhou Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Company (Gameco) proved timely. Two other Chinese MROs also provide conversion capacity; Shandong Taikoo Aircraft Engineering Company (Staeco) and Boeing Shanghai Aviation Services (BSAS). Boeing promises an approximate 90-day turnaround time regardless of the conversion facility, another feature of the company's offering that Steinhagen trumpeted as part of the program's value proposition. For the 767-300BCF, Boeing has seen orders and commitments rise to 51 with the DHL deal. ST Aviation Services Company in Singapore (SASCO) performs all the 767 conversions. A 767 conversion at SASCO takes about 105 days, which Steinhagen considers a relatively short time given the job at hand. Boeing, he added, enjoys an advantage compared with other conversion programs because it has access to firsthand design data and all the parts necessary for conversion onsite when the airplane arrives. "That gives us the ability to have a very short and a very dependable conversion process," he explained. "You can really depend on the airplane being in your hands on the [contracted] delivery date." Steinhagen said Boeing has started studying possibilities for increasing capacity to accommodate the growing demand for the standard-body and widebody Boeing Converted Freighters. Noting that much of the demand for conversions comes from Europe and North America, Steinhagen also said that plans for more capacity might include new deals with MRO providers to meet the growing market demand. https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/air-transport/2020-07-27/boeings-freighter-conversion-programs-enjoying-renaissance Back to Top China's AG600 amphibious aircraft clears sea trial on its way to being used in emergencies and South China Sea China's first home-grown and largest amphibious plane successfully made its first trial at sea on Sunday, state media reported, a major step towards final production. Kunlong, the prototype of the AG600 amphibious aircraft, took off from an airport in the east of the country in Rizhao, Shandong province, and headed to waters near Tuan Island in Qingdao. The plane skied for four minutes on the sea surface before taking off again to head back to Rizhao, according to state news agency Xinhua. The trial was declared a success and another major milestone since the plane first completed water-taxiing trials on a reservoir in Hubei province two years ago. Get the latest insights and analysis from our Global Impact newsletter on the big stories originating in China. "The successful sea trial marks another crucial step in the development of the project," said Luo Ronghuai, general manager of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China. The sea trial was essential for production of the plane to move forward, said captain Zhao Sheng. "The plane needs experience and data in handling take-off and landing at sea as the maritime environment - wind, currents, waves, temperature and a corrosive environment - is totally different from lakes," Zhao said. The project had been suspended for over a month because of the Covid-19 outbreak in Hubei, where the first infections were reported, and the prototype plane was at risk of being damaged without adequate maintenance, state broadcaster CCTV reported in April. The Aviation Industry Corporation of China sent a reinforcement team to Hubei in mid-March during lockdown in the province, to resume preparations for further tests of the plane. Once manufactured, the AG600 will fill in a gap in China's forest firefighting, maritime search-and-rescue and natural disaster relief activities. Roughly the size of a Boeing 737 - at 37 metres (120 feet) long with a 38.8-metre wingspan - it has a range of up to 4,500km (2,800 miles). The aircraft can carry out sea-rescue operations under complex meteorological conditions and can take off and land in 2-metre-high waves. It can transport 50 people during a maritime search-and-rescue mission. It will also support China's marine monitoring and safety patrols. The AG600 is bigger and has a greater take-off weight than Japan's US-2, the world's most advanced amphibious plane. If deployed in the southern island province of Hainan, the aircraft could reach anywhere in the South China Sea within four hours. It could also serve as a cargo or passenger carrier between the Chinese-controlled islands in the region. The developers have been building four prototypes. If tests go well, the amphibious aircraft is expected to be finalised and delivered by 2022, Xinhua reported. https://sg.news.yahoo.com/china-ag600-amphibious-aircraft-clears-063627525.html Back to Top Gulfstream Opens London-Area Farnborough Service Center SAVANNAH, Georgia, July 27, 2020 - Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. today announced its new Customer Support service center at the U.K.'s Farnborough Airport has opened for business. The facility's first aircraft is a Middle East-based Gulfstream G450™ arriving for scheduled maintenance.The all-new 225,000-square-foot/20,903-square-meter facility can easily accommodate up to 13 large-cabin aircraft, including the Gulfstream G650™, G650ER™ and the new industry flagship Gulfstream G700™. Gulfstream Farnborough offers maintenance, repair and overhaul services, as well as interior refurbishments and after-market modifications. "Gulfstream Farnborough is already seeing great demand," said Derek Zimmerman, president, Gulfstream Customer Support. "This opening marks the completion of another goal in our overarching strategy to enhance convenience and increase options for our customers. The new facilities we are building can better accommodate more of the increasingly popular large-cabin Gulfstream aircraft our customers are flying around the world." In line with Gulfstream's sustainability strategy, the Farnborough facility has been designed with environmental benefits, including rainwater harvesting, radiant heating systems in the purposebuilt hangar, intelligent lighting controls and heat recovery systems. The building is also expected to achieve a "Very Good" Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) rating. To complement the Farnborough site, Gulfstream's FAST™ Field & Airborne Support Teams continue to maintain a presence at London Luton Airport for arrivals, departures and aircraft-onground (AOG) service. In addition to Farnborough, Gulfstream Customer Support has expanded throughout the US with new facilities in Savannah; Appleton, Wisconsin; Van Nuys, California; and forthcoming in Palm Beach, Florida. In February, the company announced an upcoming expansion in Fort Worth, Texas. https://www.aviationpros.com/aircraft/business-general-aviation/press-release/21147727/gulfstream-aerospace-corp-gulfstream-opens-londonarea-farnborough-service-center Back to Top India to remain key global supply chain partner: Boeing India NEW DELHI: Despite Covid-19 induced economic turbulence, aero space major Boeing India plans to maintain its systems and components sourcing activity in India. The company sources components close to $1 billion a year from more than 200 suppliers in India. "India will continue to be a key contributor to our global supply chain. Our sourcing from India stands at close to $1 billion a year from more than 200 suppliers who are manufacturing critical systems and components for some of Boeing's most advanced products," Boeing India president Salil Gupte told IANS. "Our commitment to India remains strong and is for the long term. We want to contribute to the growth of India's aerospace industry; that's why we're investing in commercial aviation and defence...." According to Gupte, the aerospace major supports the government's 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' initiatives by developing Indian MSMEs through skilling and upskilling initiatives. "Our growing installed platform base with commercial and defence customers in India and our expanding supplier base makes it imperative for us to invest, develop and nurture talent," he said. "Through our skilling initiatives, we are training hundreds of pilots, aircraft maintenance engineers, technicians, and frontline factory workers across India with our industry partners like Tata, Rossell Techsys, Jaivel and Lakshmi Machine Works. With these initiatives, among others, we are focused on creating a robust aerospace and defence ecosystem in India." On the Covid-19's impact on commercial aviation, Gupte said the recovery will take longer because of the pandemic's depth and global nature. He described the impact as more severe than either the 9/11 terrorist attacks or the global financial crisis. "We anticipate it will take several years for travel to return to 2019 levels and a few years beyond that to return to long-term trend growth. Yet the fundamentals that have driven air travel for the past five decades remain intact," Gupte said. "We've always seen the industry innovate, respond, and grow over time because of its close connection to the global economy - and of course the desire of people everywhere to fly, when they have the chance." Besides, Gupte anticipates a 'three-speed recovery' process for the industry over the next several years. "Recovery will begin with domestic air travel, followed by regional international travel, followed by long-haul travel," he said. "Our industry's recovery will be shaped by several factors, from public health to government policies to economic growth and consumer confidence." Additionally, he pointed out that operators globally are assessing business needs, passenger demand and their fleets. "Airlines have aggressively cut costs by parking thousands of airplanes. In addition, many are moving up retirements of older aircraft to simplify their fleet, improve operational efficiency and reduce maintenance costs," Gupte said. "These aircraft retirements will pave the way for future deliveries as airlines seek greater versatility and efficiency in their operations. In many instances, operators are taking advantage of opportunities to grow cargo capabilities to meet demand, by utilizing dedicated cargo aircraft and at times re-purposing passenger aircraft to carry more goods." https://www.indiapost.com/india-to-remain-key-global-supply-chain-partner-boeing-india/ Back to Top Boeing secures six-year support contract for Australian P-8As Boeing Defence Australia (BDA) has secured an A$287 million ($205 million) sustainment contract for the Royal Australian Air Force's (RAAF) fleet of 12 P-8A maritime patrol aircraft. The six-year contract combines three previous contracts and covers maintenance, engineering, and logistics for the 737 derivative, says Boeing. "Under this new contract, BDA will not only be responsible for the Australian elements of the sustainment program but also takes on a platform steward role," says BDA director of commercial derivative aircraft, Darryn Fletcher. "This means taking full ownership for everything needed to keep the platform flying and broadens BDA's responsibilities to include asset management, aircraft-on-ground responsibilities, and cyber-worthiness amongst other tasks." The existing four-year support contract for the type ends in October 2020. https://www.flightglobal.com/fixed-wing/boeing-secures-six-year-support-contract-for-australian-p-8as/139490.article Back to Top AA, Lufthansa, IAG, United plead for TATL travel restart American Airlines, IAG International Airlines Group, Lufthansa, and United Airlines have sent an open letter to authorities in the European Union and the United States pleading for the transatlantic air market to be reopened based on universal COVID testing. "In addition to all the significant and unprecedented actions that governments and airlines are taking to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus, a coordinated COVID-19 testing program could be key to providing confidence to permit services to resume without quarantine requirements or other entry restrictions," chief executives from each of the four groups said. The airlines called the transatlantic market the "most indispensable corridor for global aviation". They acknowledged that universal testing would be complicated but underlined that it would also be "an excellent opportunity" for a joint action of the governments and the industry. The letter was addressed to the Vice President of the United States, Mike Pence, and the European Commissioner for Home Affairs, Ylva Johansson. Currently, the US-European market remains closed to the majority of passengers. In principle, the US does not allow passengers from the Schengen Zone, Ireland, or the United Kingdom to enter. While European Union member states do not have a common external border policy, none of them, except for Ireland, allows US residents to enter. While the United Kingdom and Ireland have not explicitly banned Americans from entry, they do require them to undergo a 14-day quarantine immediately after arrival. Most European countries have alread removed Canada from their travel ban lists. The letter was not signed by Delta Air Lines (DL, Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson) and Air France-KLM, two other major transatlantic players. While testing policies vary from country to country, some European nations, such as Austria, Denmark, and Germany, do offer tests-upon-arrival at some airports. https://www.ch-aviation.com/portal/news/93504-aa-lufthansa-iag-united-plead-for-tatl-travel-restart Back to Top Watch Live Coverage of NASA Astronauts' Return from Space Station on SpaceX Commercial Crew Test Flight NASA will provide live coverage of activities leading up to, during, and following the return of the agency's SpaceX Demo-2 test flight with the agency's astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley from the International Space Station.
