Aircraft parts provider Broward Aviation Services (BAS) has acquired one CFM56-5A engine for part-out and disassembly, which will be completed by the end of March.
Previously operated and maintained by Air Canada, this engine will be parted out at BP Aero In Dallas, with the process expected to take around four weeks to complete.
“We’re already marketing some of the LLPs,” said Dennis Amaty, co-founder and president of the BAS Group of companies. “We will undertake some immediate drop shipments; the remaining stock will go in AR (as removed) condition into stock at European hub facilities. Some parts will be repaired by Jet Air MRO, a BAS Group Company in Florida.”
With this purchase, BAS will increase its engine assets base that has parts applicable to 5B and 7B engine variants suitable for A320 family and 737NG aircraft.
