SR Technics, a leading MRO service provider, has announced that it is joining the global network of providers that maintain the GTF™ engine powering the Airbus A320neo aircraft family.
Upon signing with Pratt & Whitney, SR Technics’ Zurich-based facility will serve PW1100G-JM engines for the A320neo with full disassembly, assembly and test capabilities. The executed long-term commitment will enable SR Technics to enhance its repair capability and overall competitiveness by securing and expanding its highly skilled workforce in Switzerland by up to 400 new jobs to be created by 2024 to meet the new capacity and related demand.
