Falcon Aviation, one of the UAE\u2019s leading aviation companies specializing in business aviation services, charter and aircraft management, is set to post record revenue figures of 450 Million UAE Dirhams for 2019. Following a year of significant milestones for the company, including the opening of a new facility at Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), Falcon Aviation is setting its sights on markets further afield.<\/p>\n

Having recorded revenues of AED 300 million and AED 450 million in 2014 and 2018 respectively, Falcon Aviation is on course to achieve AED 500 million in turnover, surpassing the half billion mark in 2020. The announcement comes as De Havilland confirmed Falcon Aviation as the manufacturers\u2019 Approved Service Facility (ASF).<\/p>\n

Falcon Aviation\u2019s headquarters at Al Bateen Airport, Abu Dhabi will become the ASF in the Middle East for the Q400, providing base maintenance to De Havilland customers from across the region. The ASF will occupy Falcon Aviation\u2019s second hangar at Al Bateen, designated for fixed-wing aircraft.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the partnership between Falcon Aviation and Embraer is set to deepen as Falcon Aviation\u2019s newest facility located at Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), Dubai\u2019s new airport, has been approved as an Embraer Authorized Service Center (EASC) to expand their support for Legacy 600\/650 and Lineage customers in the region.

As a result, Falcon Aviation is the Embraer\u2019s preeminent MRO partner in the region for aircraft such as the Lineage and Legacy products.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing part of Embraer\u2019s global network of Authorized Service Centers is a strong endorsement for our services, and we are proud to extend our capabilities by offering support to customers at Dubai\u2019s Al Maktoum International Airport\u201d, said Capt.

A landmark achievement for the year has been the recent opening of Falcon Aviation\u2019s new, 24,000 sqm MRO facility for business jets and commercial aircraft,<\/span> at DWC. Large enough to house an Airbus A380, the hangar includes workshops, wash bays and landside office space, adding to Falcon Aviation\u2019s existing MRO facilities at its headquarters in Al Bateen Airport in Abu Dhabi. The DWC facility also includes a 13,000 sqm apron for aircraft parking.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the financial performance of the company, Capt. Oberoi said: \u201cIn recent years, the company has continued to go from strength to strength. We have built partnerships with some of the world\u2019s leading OEMs and these have continued flourish which I believe is testament to the incredible work done by everyone across the business at Falcon Aviation. Added to this, key clients such as ADNOC, TOTAL ABK and the Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) have placed their trust in us to deliver vital support and all this combined has contributed to our success in 2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Falcon Aviation is world\u2019s lead operator for Oil and Gas operations of state of the art 19-seater Leonardo AW 189 and 8-seater AW 169 helicopters. After successful operations for over 4 years with AW 189s Falcon Aviation has been awarded contract for two additional AW 189 helicopters by ADNOC. \u201cThis is another feather in our cap,\u201d added Capt Oberoi.<\/p>\n

Capt. Oberoi continued: \u201cLooking ahead, we see potential for even more growth. We now have an impressive new facility at DWC and have already expanded operations into Kuwait and Saudi Arabia but we see additional opportunity, especially for our Oil and Gas operations in parts of Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n

Falcon Aviation\u2019s 2019 successes have run in parallel with the start of operations in January on a five-year contract for the Kuwait Oil Company (KOC).
