Duncan Aviation is pleased to announce that the company has been granted Base Maintenance authorization on Embraer Legacy 450 and 500 aircraft. This new Embraer Executive Jets authorization allows Duncan Aviation to offer full maintenance support and service for all scheduled maintenance events on these aircraft models.

“We’re delighted that an OEM of Embraer Executive Jets’ stature in the industry has chosen Duncan Aviation as a Base Maintenance facility, and we’re quite pleased to offer expanded services to our Embraer customers,” says Duncan Aviation CEO Todd Duncan. “As more and more of our customers buy Legacy 450 and 500 aircraft, it’s an added convenience that we can now do Base Level maintenance at our Lincoln, Nebraska, facility. We’re proud to be one of the Legacy 450 and 500 authorized Embraer Service Centers in the United States.”

Duncan Aviation has performed Line maintenance, which includes routine checks and servicing, troubleshooting, replacing LRUs (Line Replacement Units) and unscheduled maintenance, on Legacy 500 aircraft. The company is pleased to be able to provide these additional services to Embraer customers.
