Monarch Aircraft Engineering (MAEL), the engineering division of Monarch has announced that its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) activity is going from strength to strength.
In September 2015 MAEL was the first UK MRO to carry out a Phase 12 Check (C-Check) on the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner aircraft and in early 2016 plan to complete a Phase 18 Check (C-Check).
In 2012 MAEL began working on the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner with the opening of a line station at Warsaw to support the first European Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner into service for LOT Polish airlines and in addition has now increased its capability to carry out maintenance on the aircraft type at Birmingham, Manchester and London Gatwick in the UK.
Ian Bartholomew, Managing Director of Monarch Aircraft Engineering Limited, says: “We’ve demonstrated commitment to new technology aircraft and MAEL will continue to lead in the MRO sector by offering airframe maintenance to global operators of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.”
