With this authorisation, various business aircraft registered under the Civil Aviation Authority of Pakistan can undergo maintenance, repairs and inspections at Rizon Jet’s maintenance facility in Qatar. 

"The Pakistan registry continues to grow, so it is an important authorisation for Rizon Jet", said Captain Hassan Al-Mousawi, Rizon Jet’s chief executive officer. "Earning this approval adds to our global suite of approvals at our MRO bases in Doha and London Biggin Hill and gives Bombardier and Hawker aircraft operators another option for comprehensive quality service and support." 

Approvals at both bases, Doha and London Biggin Hill, currently include EASA Part 145, Qatar CAA Part 145, Aruba Part 145, Bermuda Part 145, and Cayman Part 145. In Doha, this also includes UAE Part 145, Bahrain Part 145, and now Pakistan 145. Rizon Jet’s current range of capabilities includes various Bombardier and Hawker Beechcraft models. 

Last year, Rizon Jet introduced a new concept in aircraft maintenance cost control, called Rizon Rates. Rizon Rates allow customers to purchase blocks of aircraft maintenance hours at discounted rates, offering a 4 tier pricing structure whereby the more hours purchased, the larger the overall savings, resulting in potential savings of over 43% on maintenance labour costs. 

Rizon Rates hours are applicable to any type of maintenance hours: scheduled, unscheduled or AOG maintenance hours. They do not expire and may be utilized for maintenance at both Rizon Jet facilities, in Doha, Qatar and/or London Biggin Hill, UK. While the Rizon Rates Silver, Gold and Platinum plans are aircraft specific (and transferable), the Rizon Rates Fleet plan hours may be used for any aircraft in a specific operator’s fleet. 

Captain Hassan Al-Mousawi, said: “Our Rizon Rates program receives great reception and we are confident that will redefine the trust relationship between operators and the MRO. It provides the business aviation sector with a long missing element of maintenance cost management, a simple tool for controlling maintenance labour costs.”
