Bombardier plans to establish a new factory service operation in Dubai, in conjunction with joint venture partner ExecuJet Aviation and Alpha 55, to support and maintain its entire aircraft range in the emerging Middle East market. The new support centre is set to become fully operational next year and will bring its worldwide network of service bases to nine. Meanwhile, Bombardier's Flexjet Europe fractional ownership company has signed Formula 1 racing team owner Alain Prost as a sixteenth shareowner of a Learjet 31A.
