Lufthansa Technik Puerto Rico receives approval for Airbus A320neo maintenance, first aircraft overh
Lufthansa Technik Puerto Rico, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lufthansa Technik AG, received Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval to perform maintenance work on the Airbus A320neo.
For Lufthansa Technik Puerto Rico, based at Rafael Hernandez Airport Aguadilla in Puerto Rico, this approval marks a significant milestone, since it underlines the company's position as a centre of excellence for the Airbus A320 family. An investment of some 2.8 million US dollars was required for the training, tools and the material necessary for the maintenance of the new aircraft type.
"This performance was only possible thanks to our entire team's great effort. We are especially proud that Spirit Airlines is now entrusting us with the aircraft overhaul of the A320neo in addition to the A320 classic family. We are pleased that we were able to repay their trust by getting the first aircraft of this type ready for flight operations on time," says Pat Foley, Chief Executive of Lufthansa Technik Puerto Rico.\
