Air Sial has signed an exclusive long-term contract with EPCOR for the comprehensive maintenance of the auxiliary power units (APUs) equipping its fleet of three Airbus A320 aircraft.
EPCOR has designed an adaptive, competitive offer for its new customer, adapted to the needs of a young airline. As part of the AFI KLM E&M network, EPCOR will provide Air Sial with its airline-MRO mindset: the benefits of its first-rate technical know-how, as well as its experience as an operator in the management of the maintenance plan. In order to secure its operations and limit the aircraft on ground (AOG) risk, Air Sial will be able to rely on PROGNOS® for the APU, the predictive maintenance solution developed by EPCOR.
Maintenance services will be delivered by EPCOR, the AFI KLM E&M subsidiary that is recognised worldwide for its expertise on a wide range of APU solutions. Thanks to this extensive know-how, Air Sial will benefit from a single point of contact to facilitate its operations. Indeed, the particularity of its fleet is that it includes both Pratt & Whitney APS3200s and Honeywell GTCP131-9As, two types of APU for which EPCOR is a leading dual-licensed APU MRO.
