Daher Aircraft has opened a new spare parts, maintenance, equipment overhaul and logistics centre in western France, significantly expanding its support capabilities for a wide range of aircraft, from helicopters and training aircraft to legacy general aviation types produced by its predecessor companies.
The purpose-built 6,000 m ² facility at Jonzac-Neulles Airport (LFCJ) in the Charente-Maritime department replaces the company’s previous operation in Merpins, France, 25 km to the north.
The larger site ensures continuity for Daher Aircraft’s existing support and services contracts while providing additional capacity for future growth. Its direct access to Jonzac-Neulles Airport’s 1,370-metre runway also creates new opportunities for on-aircraft maintenance and technical support.
The facility was built by the Communauté des Communes de Haute Saintonge under the leadership of its then-president, Claude Belot, who attended the opening ceremony. Also present were Christophe Cabri, current president of the Communauté des Communes de Haute Saintonge and Mayor of Jonzac, together with other elected officials and government representatives.
