Pratt & Whitney Canada will expand its MRO capabilities by creating a new overhaul line in Singapore for its PT6C-67C engines, which power the Leonardo AW139 medium-twin helicopter. The new overhaul line and test cell are expected to be fully operational by 2025.
""Our Singapore facility provides a variety of comprehensive service solutions and MRO capabilities for customers in the Asia-Pacific,"" said Pratt & Whitney Canada vice president, customer service. ""There are over 600 PT6C-67C engines in service in the region, and we expect that number will continue to grow.""
Pratt & Whitney Canada's Singapore facility currently provides overhaul-level services for the PW100 family of regional turboprop engines, repair capabilities for a variety of the company's other turboprop, turbofan and turboshaft engines, and its APS3200 auxiliary power unit for the Airbus A320.
