Textron Aviation Opens Larger Melbourne Service Center to Boost Asia-Pacific Support

Textron is bolstering factory‑direct support in Asia‑Pacific to meet customer demand for faster service.

Overview

  • Textron Aviation has opened a purpose-built service facility at Essendon Fields in Melbourne for Cessna, Beechcraft and Hawker operators.
  • The site more than doubles the prior footprint to over 35,000 square feet with expanded maintenance space.
  • An on-site parts stockroom keeps common components in Melbourne to cut wait times and aircraft downtime.
  • The facility is designed to support more than 1,400 aircraft across Australia and the wider Asia-Pacific region.
  • Textron frames the investment as part of a broader push that includes recent upgrades in Perth to strengthen regional support.
