XL Airways chooses AFI KLM E&M for engine support

XL Airways' CF6-80E1 powerplants overhault by ©AFI KLM E&M

After contracts for component support and A-Checks, French carrier XL Airways has now entrusted overhauls of its two CF6-80E1 powerplants to AFI KLM E&M.

The shop visits for the two XL Airways CF6-80E1 engines will be handled one after the other by teams at Amsterdam in the first quarter of 2019. During this period, the A330-303 will be equipped with a replacement powerplant provided by AFI KLM E&M. For the carrier, this was a strong argument as there is a shortage of this engine type on the market.
