Effectivity: All Learjet aircraft
By: Kevin Ensminger, Manager, Learjet Technical ServiceSustaining demand for Learjet parts is an important part of timely support and minimizing unforeseen downtime for Learjet operators.
Even for life-limited parts, planning scheduled downtime and submitting purchase orders early is increasingly important. Forecasting remains essential to delivering support at Bombardier, VSE Aviation, and TES, but changing supply chain conditions, unforeseen circumstances, and obsolescence can make parts availability difficult to predict.
Early purchase orders help reduce this risk, especially as aircraft age and the utilization data available to Bombardier declines.
Please plan ahead and order parts early to give the parts organization more time to address unforeseen supply chain roadblocks and reduce availability risk.
