Aigle Azur selects SR Technics for heavy maintenance checks in Malta

September 24, 2013 – Zurich, Switzerland – SR Technics, part of the Mubadala Aerospace MRO network, has signed a contract with Aigle Azur Transports Aériens, a French airline based in Orly, to provide C-Checks on two Airbus A319 aircraft. The aircraft will be inducted in November and December of this year, and the work will be completed out of SR Technics’ narrowbody Center of Excellence in Malta.

This further extends the relationship between the two companies. In 2010, Aigle Azur signed a long- term agreement with SR Technics for the provision of C- and A-Checks on 12 of the airline’s Airbus A320 family aircraft. In July 2013, the two companies entered into a joint venture for light and line maintenance activities for the airline’s Airbus A320 family and future A330 fleets in France.

“We have used SR Technics’ Malta facility in the past and were very impressed with the team’s professionalism, reflected in the high quality standards and commitment to on-time-delivery of the aircraft”, says Vincent Guerin, Technical Director at Aigle Azur.

“Repeat business in many ways is a reflection of the overall customer value you provide,” comments André Wall, President at SR Technics. “This new contract with Aigle Azur demonstrates our team’s approach and focus on delivering high quality products, reliably meeting delivery schedules, all at a fair price.”
