Ghana’s Presidential Jet, the Dassault Falcon 900EX EASy, has reportedly been grounded in France for four months beyond its scheduled return date due to extensive maintenance issues.
The aircraft, which has been undergoing servicing, was found to have severe corrosion in its fuel tanks. In addition, the air intake plug receptacle of the second engine was also corroded, contributing to the prolonged delay.
A major component, the jet’s turbofan, had to be replaced entirely after assessments deemed the original beyond repair.
This is not the first time the presidential aircraft has suffered setbacks.
The Falcon 900EX has faced a growing list of maintenance issues in recent years, raising concerns about its airworthiness and reliability.
