FL Technics is to enter a segment of wheels and brakes maintenance as the group launches a dedicated business line and a specialised shop with a team of engineers and technicians in Germany, Hanover International Airport.
Dedicated facility for servicing commercial aircraft wheels and brakes, as well as tyres and components, started operations under FL Technics name on April 4 and will serve as a support hub within the global network of groups’ MRO markets, ranging from Americas to Asia-Pacific.
Zilvinas Lapinskas, CEO at FL Technics, emphasises the importance of the new development: “The successful start of the wheels and brakes business marks a new era for FL Technics and FL Technics group as we fill in a service area, previously outsourced by our MRO and sales teams. The expansion is our next step in strengthening FL Technics' position as a global one-stop-shop service provider of MRO services.”
FL Technics Wheels and Brakes launch, as Saulius Bajarunas, COO at FL Technics, states: “I am personally engaged in every stage of the business model we are now launching. Thus, I am confident this step is a recipe for success, with all the key ingredients: a highly skilled team of engineers, purpose-built facility, certifications, and capabilities in high demand, as well as a strong backup by the global MRO group of FL Technics.”
This is the first major launch of a new business line for FL Technics this year. FL Technics stated that it continues to invest in new assets and infrastructure, expand current and enter new markets, as well as grow the team of aviation professionals worldwide.
