This procedure is required when the engine driven fuel pump internally becomes damaged depositing metal debris in the fuel system. This complex procedure involves defueling the aircraft and temporarily bypassing numerous fuel system components to flush debris from the system.&nbsp;SEAL Aviation is an industry leader in maintaining Citation aircraft fuel systems. Combined with our mobile capabilities, this makes SEAL Aviation uniquely positioned to quickly respond to Citation AOG fuel system issues.</span></span></p></div>
