Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ) is extending its network of approved ACJ outfitters and completion providers with the recent firm selection of Fokker Services Group (FSG). From its base in Hoogerheide, The Netherlands, FSG will provide ACJ customers with a wide range of tailored outfitting capabilities for Airbus’ ACJ320neo and ACJ330 families.
“Over the past years, we’ve had the privilege of completing several ACJ aircraft, with standout results including ultra-lightweight and exceptionally quiet cabin interiors – both examples of innovation and precision that define our work,” said Roland van Dijk, co-CEO of FSG.
“That track record has now led to being officially recognised as an ACJ approved completion centre, a milestone that makes us extremely proud,” van Dijk continued. “It reflects the outstanding craftsmanship and breadth of skills of our teams in Engineering, Project Management, Interior Shop and Aircraft Installation & Production. We’re grateful for this recognition and excited for what the future with ACJ has in store, especially now as a fully certified partner within the Airbus ACJ network.”
Under the arrangement, Airbus will act as the turnkey contracted provider for operators of new ‘green’ factory-produced ACJ aircraft to be subsequently completed by the customer’s chosen Airbus-approved outfitter – all of which have been assessed as being compliant with Airbus’ quality standards. The outfitting modifications to the aircraft are performed under that outfitter’s respective supplemental type certificate (STC).
“We are delighted to welcome Fokker Services Group to our network of approved outfitters,” said Chadi Saade, president of ACJ. “Their proven expertise and commitment to excellence align perfectly with ACJ’s standards. This partnership strengthens our ability to offer customers top-tier completions, ensuring every ACJ aircraft meets the highest expectations.”
With this latest selection of FSG, Airbus’ network of approved outfitters now includes five trusted network partners. The other four are Comlux, Jet Aviation, AMAC Aerospace and Lufthansa Technik.
