SunExpress entrusts CF6-80E1 engines to AFI KLM E&M

AFI KLM E&M and SunExpress Deutschland, a subsidiary of SunExpress, have signed a long-term “Power by the Hour” (PBH) contract covering the CF6-80E1 engines equipping the SunExpress Deutschland’s A330s. In addition to engine maintenance, the contract also covers services in connection with engine availability and on-wing support. The contract marks the first time the two companies have directly cooperated on engine maintenance. In addition to the competitive contract pricing, SunExpress Deutschland was won over by AFI KLM E&M’s dual technical and operational expertise on the CF6-80E1 product, developed for the benefit of both its customers and its parent airlines, AIR FRANCE and KLM.
