Jet Aviation Receives FAP-285 Approval at its MRO Facility in Moscow-Vnukovo

Jet Aviation’s maintenance facility at Moscow-Vnukovo has received certification from the Federal Air Transport Agency (RFAA) in Russia for Federal Aviation Rules 285 (FAP-285).

Introduced by the RFAA in 2015, FAP-285 certification confirms adherence to all Russian civil aviation laws. With this approval, Jet Aviation’s MRO facility in Moscow is authorized to provide line maintenance and AOG support to Bombardier Challenger 300 series, 600 series and Global 5000/6000 aircraft, as well as to Gulfstream G550/G650 aircraft.

“Our goal is to ensure we meet our customers’ maintenance requirements to the highest standards,” says Vitaly Aleksikov, general director at Jet Aviation Moscow Vnukovo. “This new approval demonstrates our commitment to ensuring the utmost safety and security for our customers.”

In response to increased traffic volume and demand for aircraft services in the region, Jet Aviation also expanded its Sales Team in EMEA and Asia with the appointment of Elena Isaeva earlier this year. Based in Moscow, Elena is responsible for clients and projects in Eastern Europe, Russia and the CIS.

Jet Aviation Moscow Vnukovo provides 24/7 technical maintenance services, including line maintenance, defect rectification and AOG services, to Bombardier, Gulfstream, Embraer, Falcon and Hawker aircraft operators at Vnukovo International Airport. As part of Jet Aviation’s global MRO network, the company particularly supports AOG requirements throughout the Russian region. Jet Aviation Moscow Vnukovo is a line maintenance, AOG and authorized warranty line service facility for Bombardier aircraft products, as well as an authorized line service facility for the full line of Gulfstream and Embraer jets. Located next to the Vnukovo 3 FBO, the facility currently holds maintenance approvals from EASA #145.0472, FAA #8VLY 606C, Aruba DCA, Cayman CAA and Bermuda DCA.
