Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey and Batam Aero Technik plan a co-operation for PW127M engine maintenance

Batam Aero Technik and Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey (LTAA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding during the Singapore Airshow about their intention to cooperate in the area of PW127M engine MRO in the future. Batam Aero Technik is the technical arm of the Lion Air Group which operates worldwide the biggest fleet of ATR aircraft within its group airlines Wings Abadi and Malindo. LTAA is a leading engine MRO service provider for regional airlines with full capabilities not only for the PW100 and PW150 turboprops but also the complete CF34 turbofan engine family. Within this cooperation LTAA will provide comprehensive support for Batam Aero Technik for the build up of an engine MRO facility for its PW127M engines in Batam. Until the new facility reaches the required capabilities to support Lion Air Group’s fleet of PW127M engines, LTAA will provide the respective services in its own facility.
