AMAC Aerospace has completed its overall review of 2024, announcing continued stable growth in the aviation sector. The company achieved significant success, particularly in wide-body aircraft, midsize jets, and specialised connectivity systems. AMAC Aerospace has made a powerful start to 2025, driven by growing global demand and new projects.
Record Number of Aircraft Serviced at the Basel Facility
At its headquarters in Basel, Switzerland, AMAC Aerospace successfully completed maintenance on:
-
Over 50 wide-body aircraft
-
More than 120 narrow-body aircraft
-
Over 250 midsize jets
Additionally, more than 80 new technicians joined the AMAC Aerospace team, boosting operational capacity.
AMAC Joins the Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ) Service Network
In December 2024, the Basel facility officially joined the Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ) Service Centre Network (SCN). This strategic move has strengthened AMAC Aerospace’s MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) services for ACJ operators worldwide. The company announced plans to expand this partnership within the group.
Five Boeing 747 Projects in April
In April 2025, five Boeing B747 projects were simultaneously underway at the Basel facility. These projects included:
-
6A and D checks
-
Starlink installations
-
Structural repairs of up to 36 months
-
Comprehensive cabin refurbishments and IFEC system upgrades
Notably, 53 beam cracks were detected and repaired on a B747-8i. Thanks to its sheet metal department, AMAC produced the necessary parts in-house, avoiding delays. This project, carried out in close collaboration with Boeing, was recognised in the industry as a benchmark in technical competence.
Rising Demand for Midsize Jets
AMAC Aerospace reported a significant increase in interest for midsize aircraft, especially Bombardier models. Key factors include:
-
A growing private aviation market in Africa and India
-
Increasing aircraft ownership transitions
By offering flexible slot solutions for interior refurbishments, connectivity installations, and pre-purchase inspections (PPIs), the company continues to grow in this segment.
Next-Generation Satellite Connectivity Installations
Throughout the past year, AMAC Aerospace carried out over 50 Ka-/Ku-band and various LEO satellite projects. These installations were mostly conducted alongside major maintenance checks. With integrated cybersecurity solutions, the company delivers end-to-end connectivity systems that stand out in the industry.
Noteworthy Developments Across Group Companies
GAMIT and the ROAM Platform Continue to Grow
Group company GAMIT experienced significant growth driven by demand for its digital records management platform, ROAM. In 2024, 10-year contracts were signed with major global aviation companies such as DRF Luftrettung, Air Tahiti Nui, and Transavia France. The new ROAM V2.0 was enhanced with features like signature and handwriting recognition and now supports rotary-wing aircraft as well.
JCB Aero Launches Operations in France with a New Hangar
In October 2024, JCB Aero completed its first three projects at its new MRO hangar in Auch, France. The facility has the capacity to service 30 narrow-body aircraft per year and plans to employ 50 staff. JCB also offers expertise in VIP helicopter outfitting.

-
More than 10 wide-body aircraft (A330, B777)
Thanks to collaboration with Basel, the number of VIP projects increased. One of 2025’s first major projects involved redelivery of a wide-body aircraft—one of five A330s at the end of their lease terms—completed within four months.
