Bombardier’s Business Aircraft London Service Centre
Bombardier’s Business Aircraft London Service Centre in Biggin Hill is part of an award-winning network and is the flagship of Bombardier’s European operation. This Base and Line Maintenance Centre is the fastest-growing Service Centre in Europe and the largest Business Aircraft OEM in the UK. The facility has the capabilities to perform an array of maintenance checks, modifications and upgrades all from this site. Only 14 miles from London, Bombardier’s Biggin Hill Service Centre is ideally located to support operators in the UK region and beyond.

- Verify if Mechanics and B1/B2 Support Staff assigned (‘crew’) are qualified to perform the task(s)

- Prioritize work, and coordinate/assign daily work plan to the crew
- Ensure performed tasks are in accordance with Bombardiers Maintenance Organization Procedures

- Provide time estimates and monitor efficiency to ensure that scheduled man-hours are not exceeded, and coordinate overtime requirements with the Project Manager
- Ensure crew maintains good housekeeping practices
- Ensure all task-handovers are done at the end of the shift, as well as the shift-handover
- Release aircraft and authorized, by signing the Certificate of Release to Service after base maintenance
