Lufthansa Technik offers comprehensive technical support for Airbus A350

Right on time for the market launch of the Airbus A350, Lufthansa Technik is offering operators of this new twin-engine wide-body aircraft a comprehensive, flexible portfolio of maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services for this aircraft type. The spectrum of services covers the entire life cycle of the A350 and includes production inspections, material supply, maintenance and maintenance management as well as engineering services, entry-into-service support and LRU and engine maintenance. A particular focus of services for the A350 is aircraft IT management, since the aircraft and its maintenance systems are much more cross-linked than those of previous aircraft generations. In addition to Lufthansa´s experience in both flight operations as well as maintenance on the A380, Lufthansa Technik is investing in the extensive involvement in the development program for the A350. Since 2008 Lufthansa Technik engineers have worked on behalf of Lufthansa, which will take delivery of its first A350s in 2016, with teams of airline experts known as Customer Focus Groups.
