GA Telesis’ MRO Services Group has received approval from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) for its Miami-based landing gear operation. This new rating allows GA Telesis MRO Services to repair and overhaul CRJ900 landing gears for China Express Airlines (China Express).
In 2019, the company has entered into a long-term agreement to overhaul landing gears for China Express’ entire fleet of CRJ900 aircraft. The maintenance commenced this year on a US$27 million contract. Landing gear repairs and overhauls for this aircraft type will occur in the Miami facility located across from Miami International Airport.
GA Telesis MRO Services began landing gear overhauls mid-2019 and has entered into several contracts to perform overhaul and repairs on regional aircraft. “This certification provides the Company with an entry point into the Asia-Pacific market and fulfills its strategic plan to increase its product offerings for this year,” said Pastor Lopez, President MRO Services.
The company will deliver the first landing gear shipset this month.
