Falcon Technic Receives GCAA Production Organisation Approval

Falcon Technic DWC-LLC, part of Alex Group Investment, has received Production Organisation Approval (POA) from the General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA), marking an important step forward for Falcon’s technical and operational capabilities.

This approval allows Falcon Technic to manufacture approved aircraft parts and aeronautical items, in line with UAE CAR 21 regulations. It confirms that Falcon’s production processes and quality systems meet the required aviation standards.

For Falcon, this means more control, faster support, and greater reliability. By producing approved parts in-house, Falcon can reduce turnaround times, depend less on external suppliers, and support both its own operations and customer aircraft more efficiently. It also strengthens Falcon’s ability to deliver complete aviation solutions under one organization.

Commenting on the approval, Mr. Sultan Rashit Abdulla Rashit Al Shene, Founder & Chairman of Alex Group Investment said:

“Receiving the Production Organisation Approval is a natural next step for us. After obtaining our Design Organisation Approval a few months ago, this certification completes an important part of the puzzle. It allows us to design, produce, and support components with much greater control, while keeping quality, safety, and reliability at the core of our operations. This is how we are building Falcon as a strong, dependable aviation partner for the long term”

The approval applies to Falcon Technic’s facility at the Mohammed Bin Rashid Aerospace Hub in Dubai South and supports Falcon’s continued growth within the UAE’s aviation ecosystem.

Falcon Executive Aviation, part of Alex Group Investment, announced during the Dubai Airshow the development of a new fully private multi-modal FBO terminal in Dubai designed from the ground up to become the city’s primary hub for helicopter services and future eVTOL operations.

This project establishes Falcon as the UAE’s first operator to fully integrate private jet, helicopter, and eVTOL services within a single private aviation gateway unlocking a new era of urban air mobility for Dubai.

Constructed on a 6,380 sqm plot, the terminal is engineered as an ultra-private facility with direct
Helipad and Vertiport access, enabling immediate helicopter and eVTOL arrivals, departures, and inter emirate transfers.
The terminal will also be fully equipped to support Dubai moves toward sustainable urban air-mobility integration, making Falcon a key player in the region’s upcoming air-taxi network.

This new facility is designed to offer a smooth and rapid mobility experience, where travellers can land by private jet, clear customs privately, and continue their journey by helicopter or transition directly to future eVTOL services for fast point-to-point travel across Dubai.

The development will also include luxury amenities such as high-end retail, private banking, commercial spaces, and dedicated VIP lounges, all created to support a premium, efficient vertical mobility ecosystem.

The project is a major pillar of Alex Group Investment’s 2026–2028 strategic roadmap, which includes building Dubai’s most advanced rotary-wing infrastructure and hangar to meet rising demand in airborne mobility and next-generation transport technologies.

Mr. Sultan Rashit Abdulla Rashit Al Shene, Founder & Chairman of Alex Group Investment, stated: “This terminal marks a decisive shift in Dubai’s aviation future. For the first time, private jet operations, helicopter services, and next generation eVTOL mobility will operate under one fully private gateway. We are building the largest helipad facility in the UAE, not as an addition, but as a foundation for the region’s future air mobility network. This project is the beginning of a new chapter for aviation in Dubai.”

As 2025 comes to an end, Falcon, part of Alex Group Investment, would like to thank its clients and partners and share a few words about the year and what lies ahead.

2025 was a strong year for Falcon. The company grew, delivered, and continued to build something bigger than a traditional private aviation business.

For the first time, Falcon took part in major international aviation events such as EBACE and the Dubai Airshow. These events were an opportunity to meet partners, exchange ideas, and show that Falcon is thinking long term and engaging on a global level.

Growth was also visible in daily operations. Aircraft movements at Falcon Elite’s FBO increased by 77.8% compared to last year. More clients chose Falcon, and more operators trusted the platform. This growth was achieved while maintaining a clear focus on service quality and client satisfaction.

During the year, Falcon strengthened its capabilities. Alex Jet, part of Alex Group Investment, received its UAE Air Operator Certificate, allowing Falcon Luxe to operate private jets under A6 registration. Falcon Technic received Design Organisation Approval, reinforcing its focus on safety, quality, and technical control. Falcon also continued working with trusted partners to ensure reliable, high-performance connectivity for its clients.

What truly defines Falcon is how the company looks to the future. The founder’s vision has always been to think big and look beyond today’s aviation model. In 2025, Falcon announced plans for the first private terminal designed to serve helicopters, private jets, and future eVTOL mobility, investing early in how people will travel tomorrow. Falcon also announced plans for an exclusive private jet terminal in Ras Al Khaimah, next to the region’s first integrated casino destination, reflecting confidence in both the region’s future and Falcon’s continued growth.

Today, Falcon is more than a single aviation service. It is an operator, an FBO, an MRO, a flight support provider, and a growing aviation ecosystem offering multiple services under one wing. This wide range of capabilities allows Falcon to maintain control, move quickly, and deliver a consistent experience to its clients.

Commenting on the year, Mr. Sultan Rashit Abdulla Rashit Al Shene, Founder & Chairman of Alex Group Investment said: “2025 was a successful year for Falcon, marked by strong growth and important milestones. But success is only a foundation. In 2026, our ambition is greater.”

As Falcon closes 2025, the message is simple. The company is growing, thinking ahead, and building for the long term.

Season’s greetings from all of us at Falcon.

We look forward to continuing the journey together in 2026.

Falcon Technic, part of Alex Group Investment and a leading provider of premium aircraft maintenance and engineering services in the UAE, announced it has been appointed as an Authorised Dealer for Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO).

The new agreement, signed during Dubai Airshow 2025, enables Falcon Technic to support the distribution and installation of Gogo’s multi-band, multi-orbit Gogo Galileo and Plane Simple satellite connectivity systems, bringing high-speed, reliable wi-fi to any airframe, flying anywhere.

Falcon Technic DWC-LLC is an approved maintenance organisation based in Dubai, holding UAE GCAA (UAE.145.0095) and Aruban DCA (DL-VAL-081).

In May 2025, Falcon Technic confirmed the purchase of multiple Gogo Galileo HDX antenna systems for its charter fleet. The terminals, to be installed on its Bombardier Global 5000 and Global Express aircraft, align with the company’s strategy to redefine the inflight passenger experience with consistent, global broadband powered by the Eutelsat OneWeb LEO constellation.

“The Middle East region is particularly buoyant right now, and we’re pleased to have appointed a local distributor to support our continued growth. We’ve purpose-built our systems for the business and government aviation sector and know that our relationship with Falcon will bring high-speed broadband access to more operators in the region. We’re excited to develop the business with Falcon,” added Dave Falberg, Senior VP Sales EMEA and APAC for Gogo.

During the Dubai Airshow 2025, the UAE General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) and

advisory arm, IACT and Alex Group’s aviation entities. The collaboration focuses on sharing
expertise, supporting joint initiatives, and developing programs that align with UAE and international
aviation standards.

As part of the cooperation, GCAA/IACT will work with Alex Group on tailored initiatives that include
technical workshops, regulatory updates, and specialised programs designed to support the
continuous improvement of aviation operations in the country. The partnership also includes joint

of the UAE’s aviation sector. Working together allows us to exchange expertise, strengthen

The signing marks an important milestone for both organisations, reinforcing a united commitment
to elevating aviation standards and supporting the UAE’s long-term growth as a global aviation hub.
