FAI Technik, the maintenance division of Germany’s FAI Aviation Group, has reported record financial results in 2017 achieving revenues of €9.7m for the first time in the company’s history. The division’s revenues mark a significant increase of 40% compared with 2016.
The company inaugurated its new 4,500 m² carbon neutral Hangar 8 last year, the largest general aviation hangar complex in Germany complementing its existing 2,000 m² Hangar 6 and 3,000 m² Hangar 7.
FAI Technik’s strong performance has also been buoyed by its ability to take on more challenging projects. The Nuremberg-based MRO which is supported by some 60 full time staff has recently succeeded in undertaking its most expansive and challenging project to date. FAI Technik has completed a 6,000-man-hour cabin conversion of a classic Global Express aircraft for a corporate client including the installation of an XRS cabin including a 180-month inspection and paint.
The MRO has also just completed a combined 96 and 192 month inspection as well as a full cabin refurbishment and new paint on a Challenger 604 on behalf of German GA Operator, Air Independence.
