Cronos Goes ‘Live’ with OASES at new MRO operation in South Africa

Cronos Airlines International’s AMO (CAI Aerospace) has become the latest member of the worldwide OASES community and is the company’s first active customer in South Africa. The Cronos family was founded in 2007 with scheduled passenger carrier Cronos Airlines, based in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea. Since then, it has transported more than two million passengers throughout its network linking West and Central Africa. In 2012, sister company Cronos Airlines International became a South African licensed AOC and AMO based at O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, South Africa. Its AMO operation (known as CAI Aerospace) performs all maintenance, including C-checks for its fleet of Embraer ERJ-135/145’s as well as a BAe 146-200. Its capabilities also include VIP aircraft and a Boeing 737 Classic/NG. Another sister company, AviaSeven (an EASA Part 145 and Part M CAMO located in Athens, Greece) is an existing Commsoft client already supported by OASES under a CAMO contract.
