Bombardier expands its line maintenance station at Le Bourget in Paris
Bombardier’s Le Bourget Line Maintenance Station (LMS) has increased its maintenance and repair services as well as Mobile Response Team (MRT) reach for customers in Europe. This expansion marks another step in the company’s drive to lead the industry in aftermarket services while growing its worldwide service footprint.
With more than 30,000 added sq. ft. (3,000 square metres) of hangar space, Bombardier’s Le Bourget LMS is now capable of accommodating up to three Global 7500 aircraft at one time or as many as six Learjet or Challenger aircraft at a time. Its increased number of technicians and additional space has increased the reach and response time of Bombardier’s locally stationed MRT trucks.
The expansion has increased the LMS’ capacity for light scheduled and unscheduled maintenance as well as parking services, which are currently provided by the LMS. “Our supplemental light and line maintenance capabilities and parking solution at this strategic location complement our existing heavy maintenance offerings in Berlin and London and ensure customers of our already-popular Le Bourget LMS can benefit right now from access to a broader range of top-tier options in the region,” said Anthony Cox, Vice President, Customer Support, Bombardier.
The Le Bourget facility is certified for the Learjet 60 and Learjet 75 aircraft, as well as Challenger and Global series business jets, including Bombardier’s flagship Global 7500 and its new, award-winning Challenger 3500 aircraft.
