SABCA won a new contract from the Royal Netherlands Air Force to perform 300 Hours Phase Inspections on its F-16 fleet. The "300 Hours phase Inspection" is a periodical overall check-up of aircraft's critical components, systems and airframe integrity. It mainly consists in a series of inspections to determine that no condition exists which, if not corrected, could result in a component failure or system malfunction. Any unsatisfactory inspection results in a deeper assessment and, if necessary, the performance of a corrective action in order to safeguard the aircraft's reliability and preserve its availability until the next scheduled inspection. The choice made by the Royal Netherlands Air Force to extend its co-operation with SABCA, demonstrates SABCA's abilities to provide accurate, on-time and competitive answers to the most demanding requirements. This new assignment is yet another confirmation of the recognition of SABCA as a trusted first class maintenance, repair and overhaul services provider on F-16 as well as other fighter and trainer aircraft.
