Hong Kong-based Metrojet Limited, a business aviation service provider with a presence throughout Asia Pacific, is pleased to announce that its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) joint venture in the Philippines, Metrojet Engineering Clark, has recently completed a 60-month inspection which also includes the Global Vision Flight Deck version five avionics upgrade on a Bombardier Global 5000. This upgrade requires a series of software changes that enable avionics functionality and features, ensuring the overall interoperability between different cockpit systems.

Mr. Bruce Watson, chief operating officer of Metrojet stated, "Metrojet continues to see growth in maintenance demand in South East Asia. In the last three months, our Clark MRO team has successfully delivered heavy maintenance events including the latest 60-month inspection on a Global 5000 and a 12C on a Gulfstream G350. Our customers are looking for a cost effective and quality alternative to the congested, restricted and expensive options in the region. We are uniquely positioned in Clark to deliver this competitive service with our growing maintenance team, capabilities, management and approvals."

Mr. Bruce Watson continued, "The ease of operations and low operating costs are proving to be an attractive alternative to operators and the Philippines government's focus on Clark as a strategic growth area is driving the development of local facilities, infrastructure, industry and leisure. We see Clark as a key location for the future and are expanding our established operations to be part of that future."

Metrojet Engineering Clark has also recently received the approval on its component capability for main wheels and tyres on Bombardier Challenger 300 and 350 aircraft. The Clark facility is a certified repair station with approvals from the Philippines CAAP, the United States FAA and the Cayman Islands CAACI.

Established in 1995, Metrojet pioneered business aviation services in Hong Kong and remains one of the most renowned safety and customer-focussed business jet operators and maintenance providers in Asia Pacific.
