ExecuJet Haite completes first engine change on Falcon aircraft

ExecuJet Haite has completed its first engine change on a Falcon 7X aircraft, powered by PW307A turbofans. The work was done at the company’s Tianjin MRO centre. ExecuJet Haite general manager Paul Desgrosseillers said: “Chinese Falcon operators previously had to send aircraft to Shanghai or more often it went overseas for engine changes. However, after this most recent event we have now demonstrated that it can be successfully performed at our Tianjin facility.” Its facility has a built-in overhead crane for engine changes and the company performs line and base maintenance on the 7X and 8X aircraft.
