Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey (LTAA), a wholly owned subsidiary of Lufthansa Technik, has renewed its Designated Overhaul Facility (DOF) licences with Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) for the maintenance and overhaul of PW100 and PW150 engine types. The agreement was signed during the Paris Air Show and authorises LTAA to continue delivering full-scale engine maintenance services for a broad range of regional aircraft.

The licence renewal covers around 3,300 PW100 and 850 PW150 engines in operation worldwide, which primarily power regional aircraft such as the ATR 72 and the De Havilland Canada DHC-8-400 (Q400). The contract reinforces a partnership that dates back 37 years, highlighting the enduring collaboration between LTAA and Pratt & Whitney Canada.

Rubin Siddique, Chief Executive Officer at Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey, commented: “As a Designated Overhaul Facility, we are committed to upholding the high standards set by Pratt & Whitney Canada. We greatly appreciate the trust and confidence placed in our long-standing relationship and look forward to continuing this
successful collaboration.”

LTAA first began working with the PW100 engine in 1988, when the company operated under the name DLT A.E.R.O. Services GmbH. The relationship expanded further in 2006 when LTAA was appointed as a DOF for the PW150 engine. Since then, LTAA has continually fulfilled its role as an authorised facility, maintaining the highest standards of quality and reliability in aviation engine maintenance.

This latest renewal not only secures LTAA’s ongoing role in supporting regional aviation but also demonstrates the mutual trust and technical expertise shared between LTAA and P&WC.
