BOISE, Idaho, May 23, 2016 – Western Aircraft, a Greenwich AeroGroup company, announced today the completion of a Falcon 900EX project that included major maintenance, interior refurbishment and the company’s first Elite II upgrade.
The new avionics package installed on the Falcon 900EX was one of four Dassault aircraft in the Authorized Service Center for concurrent C inspections, avionics modification or retrofit and interior refurbishment.
“The entire project which included the 900EX Elite II installation was a team effort,” said Director of Aircraft Services Jody Harris. “The preplanning and hard work put in by all of our technicians helped us successfully complete this project and exceed our customers’ expectations.”
The Falcon Elite II upgrade permits operators to comply with air traffic management mandates such as ADS-B Out, reduce crew workload and enable use of new approach procedures such as WAAS-LPV and RNP. Western Aircraft has a long history installing the EASy II upgrade, flat panel retrofits and other significant avionics modifications on jet aircraft for several years.
