Aerocare Cements New Capability in Painting Embraer Praetor 600
/Aerocare Aviation Services, part of the Complete Aircraft Group, has recently accomplished its first full aircraft repainting of an Embraer Praetor 600 aircraft, under a newly established relationship with a leading European business aviation service provider.
The Embraer aircraft received a full exterior repaint of its existing OEM livery using an approved paint system from Akzo Nobel, with all works being undertaken at Aerocare’s dedicated paint facility at Hawarden airport (ENGR), Chester, UK.
It follows recently completed improvements after a significant investment in its paint facility last autumn, widening the door aperture to 22 meters, enabling it to accept larger aircraft types, including the Embraer Legacy family and the Bombardier Challenger Series.
Working in collaboration with their Part 145 MRO partners to provide EASA certification, has enabled Aerocare access to new markets and provided their existing client base with extended coverage.
“Based on this highly successful experience, the client has already positioned a further aircraft for a full repaint to Chester and has several projects booked in with us during the next 12 months,” commented Craig Radford, Head of Sales and Business Development at Aerocare.
“We’re extremely proud to have completed our first Embraer Praetor repaint project. It produced a fantastic result, surpassing the high standards our client expects and we look forward to developing our future co-operation with them. We have a fantastic facility for all our customers looking to refresh their aircraft exteriors with a VIP finish.”
With its EASA Part 145 base maintenance facility adjacent to the paint hangar, Aerocare provides a one-stop-shop solution for maintenance, repair, interior refurbishment, and modifications.
