Flying Colours Corp. Completes 240-Month Global Express Heavy Inspection At Peterborough Headquarters
/Flying Colours Corp. has completed a 240 month inspection for a Bombardier Global Express aircraft. The intense check took place at their headquarters at Peterborough Airport where a technical team with extensive heavy maintenance experience completed the twenty-year inspection.
Completely stripped back to the air frame, a thorough check for corrosion, stress fractures and other issues that may affect the structural integrity of the aircraft was undertaken. This was followed by a number of service bulletin updates.
In conjunction with the mandatory 240 month inspection tasks and landing gear restoration, additional hourly inspections were completed, as well as, multiple service bulletins to inspect for and correct flap corrosion. In the new fully computerised and climate controlled state-of-the-art paint shop which opened this March at the Canadian company’s headquarters, paint work touch ups rejuvenated the fuselage.
