Every job has its own bay.
Parts and paperwork are never shared between aircraft. The logo on the floor marks the axis of the shop; on each side there is a complete bay, with its own staging and tool cart.
What a client sees on arrival.
From the gate to the waiting room is under two minutes, and the aircraft never leaves your sight along the way.
Ground service is not billed separately.
Ramp and fuel 365 days a year, hangar-to-ramp transfer, 360° inspection before and after every flight, general cleaning and support with DGAC paperwork.
The work happens under cover.
The aircraft enters the hangar and does not leave until it is handed back. Enclosed workshops, separate warehouses for genuine parts and flammables, and an online manual library that every work order is run against.
