StandardAero has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with GMF, Indonesia’s top provider of aircraft maintenance and repair services. The deal aims to combine both companies’ skills to deliver strong on-wing engine support for airlines in Indonesia and across Asia-Pacific.
The first phase will focus on the CFM International CFM56-7B engine. This model powers the Boeing 737NG family and remains widely used. Around 270 engines operate in Indonesia and more than 4,200 across the wider region. StandardAero already supports these operators through its overhaul facilities in Canada and the United States.
In Indonesia, StandardAero has earned a reputation as a trusted MRO partner. It supports more than 40 local operators and service providers. The company also runs a turboprop overhaul facility in Seletar, Singapore, giving it a base close to Indonesia and faster access to regional clients.
Mario Romano, Airline Sales Director – APAC at StandardAero, said the partnership would lift service standards. “We are excited to work with GMF to offer a wider range of engine services,” he said. “Together, we will cut turnaround times, improve quality, and reduce costs for our customers.”
This new MoU marks an important step for both firms. It builds on shared goals of efficiency and reliability. By joining forces, StandardAero and GMF aim to raise the bar for engine maintenance and support across Asia-Pacific. The partnership will help airlines operate more smoothly, with better service and faster response times. © GMF Aero Asia
