EXPLORING MROs AFTER AVEOS

摘要

The recovery in Canadian maintenance repair and overhaul (MRO) reported last year in Wings continues to take hold despite the Aveos set back. The sudden collapse of Montreal-based Aveos Fleet Performance last April sent shock waves across the MRO industry and raised questions over Canada's competitiveness in global MRO. It has also left Canada without a single, full-service operation as aircraft fleets continue to grow and operators outsource more engine and component work."Quebec's aerospace industry feeds off each other," said Robert Donald, executive director of the Canadian Council for Aviation and Aerospace (CCAA). "Having local suppliers is important, and having a world class, full service MRO was a boon to the entire industry. It is now one less piece in the cluster."
