Vortex Aviation announced
its expansion into Dublin Ireland on Monday, May 13, 2019. The new location will
provide engine hospital shop visit maintenance activities to support its global
customer base. Initial focus will be on CFM56-5B/7B engine models with other
engine models added in the near future.
Dublin was selected as a prime location, as it is known to be the heart of the aviation community. This will help lessors, owners, and operators reduce heavy maintenance costs and expand on the existing facilities in Fort Lauderdale, Shannon, and Singapore.
Vortex has operated as a Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) shop under Kellstrom Aerospace Group since 2017. Their services have contributed to the continuously expanding portfolio of Kellstrom. Over the last couple years, the companies have aligned forces to expand into new regions, Dublin being the first impression of their expansion blueprint.
“As we grow, we will continue to make our mark on a global level – it’s an inspiring time for both Vortex and Kellstrom,” commented Jeff Lund, CEO, Kellstrom Aerospace.
