Maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) company FL Technics has joined the Latin America and Caribbean Air Transport Association (ALTA).
“FL Technics is a key player in the aviation sector and recognises that Latin America is a dynamic and growing market,” said ALTA CEO Jose Ricardo Botelho. “That is why, since last year, it has been building a state-of-the-art MRO facility at Punta Cana International Airport, the second busiest airport in the Caribbean.”
The MRO facility's first phase will be completed after two years and includes a 52,000 square metre facility with a 20,000 square metre hangar.
"As we expand our global MRO network, the Americas and Caribbean region are a vital part of our long-term strategy," said Zilvinas Lapinskas, CEO of FL Technics. “Our new facility in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, will enhance the availability of high-quality maintenance services for airlines across the region as well as create significant job opportunities for local talent."
