LHT signs exclusive engine contract with Mango Airlines

Lufthansa Technik AG and Mango Airlines from South Africa have signed an exclusive contract for the maintenance of CFM56-7B engines, which power the airline’s fleet of ten Boeing 737NG aircraft. Within the framework of the agreement, Lufthansa Technik will provide overhaul services for the engines at its German locations until 2022. Mango Airlines’ parent company, South African Airways, has been receiving exclusive support from Lufthansa Technik for the CFM56-7B engines of its Boeing 737NG fleet for more than 15 years already. This new agreement now comprises at least 19 overhaul events over the next five years, with billing on a power-by-the-hour basis.
