On-time redelivery of second VIP aircraft reinforces SR Technics' excellent service level

After a complete refurbishment in SR Technics' new VIP facilities in Zurich, the aircraft cabin looks as new and features an upgraded state-of-the-art In-flight Entertainment (IFE) system and an additional communications system.

The redelivery of the second VIP aircraft took place in mid-August, on the exact date defined at the start of the project.

The cabin refurbishment included the exchange of multiple materials, following existing design guidelines and color schemes. The newly installed carpeting and flooring as well as the reupholstered seats add a luxurious modern look, touch and feel to the interior.

Handcrafted new furniture and cabinets optimize in-flight cabin space and functionality, using VVIP standards and finishes.

Thanks to a reconfiguration of the cabin, the customer is now able to adapt the interior set-up flexibly to accommodate changing operational needs.

Throughout the project SR Technics demonstrated its outstanding capabilities, know-how and quality standards in every aspect: from the design to engineering to manufacturing through the specialists of the VIP cabinetry team.

A heavy maintenance C-Check was carried out in parallel. This allowed the downtime to be kept to a minimum, thanks to SR Technics' ability to combine VIP services with its long-standing MRO experience.

The customer's project team, responsible for signing off the aircraft, highly appreciated SR Technics' performance and on-time delivery, and commented: "We were very impressed by the flexibility and reliability of SR Technics' dedicated VIP team. Whatever our need was, we always felt very well looked after throughout the project. The whole team demonstrated a very proactive approach and came up with creative solutions to meet our needs in every aspect. From the start they delivered an outstanding quality and lived up to the high expectations we had of a Swiss company. Looking at our new interior they have already achieved a quality level which is industry benchmark. We are looking forward to working with SR Technics in the future."

André Wall, President at SR Technics, said "I feel very honoured that a government has entrusted our team with their aircraft, and we are very pleased with the completion of our second VIP project, especially with regards to our high quality standards and on-time delivery. We have fully met our customer's expectations, and thanks to our one project at a time philosophy, the VIP team was able to flexibly integrate multiple customer requests throughout the project. With the successful redelivery of our second VIP aircraft, SR Technics has strengthened its position in the market for VIP completions, and the current sales pipeline confirms the high potential of our strong service portfolio."
