New Falcon Airborne Service adds alternative lift to AOG support
October 20, 2014 (Orlando, Florida): Today Dassault Aviation introduced a new
airborne response service that provides not only rapid AOG support but also
alternative transportation options for passengers.
"We already use charter and company aircraft to expedite AOG solutions, but with
our new service we are taking airborne support to the next level," said Eric
Trappier, Dassault Aviation Chairman/CEO. "Our large cabin, long-range Falcon
900s will play an important role in making sure our Customers get to their next
destination as quickly and efficiently as possible."
The service, part of a major reinforcement of Dassault's customer support
portfolio, will involve two Falcon 900 aircraft, one based at Teterboro airport
in New Jersey and another at Le Bourget outside of Paris.
The Teterboro 900 will serve North America, Central America and parts of South
America. The Le Bourget-based aircraft will serve Europe, Russia, North Africa
and the Middle East.
Each will be able to carry Dassault GoTeams and the necessary parts and tools to
put an AOG aircraft back into service and provide alternative lift for
passengers if needed.
"Our belief is that, if an AOG occurs, the impact to passengers should be
minimal and, they should be supported entirely throughout all phases of the
event," said Trappier.
Trappier noted that Dassault is in the midst of a massive expansion of its
customer support services, including parts, people, service locations and
digital services. The company has already achieved the highest level of spare
parts availability in the industry, filling more than 98 percent of orders
within the timeframe requested by customers. Dassault Customer Service has also
reduced prices on tens of thousands of parts through its ongoing Right Size
Pricing program.
"We have a 'Whatever it Takes' attitude here at Dassault, and it's more than
just a slogan: it's a true commitment. This new airborne response service is
evidence of that," said Trappier.
