FL Technics, a prominent aircraft maintenance solutions company, has achieved a significant milestone with its newly obtained certification from the Civil Aviation Authority of the United Kingdom (UK CAA) to expand its Part-145 maintenance capabilities to cover the CFM56 family of engines. This achievement supplements FL Technics’ existing approvals from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for engine repairs conducted at its facility in Kaunas, Lithuania.
Valerij Deveikis, CEO, FL Technics Engine Services, said, “Our team is focused on sustainable business development, which requires consistency in operations as well as improvement, thus I trust that this new certification by the UK CAA will strengthen FL Technics Engine Services’ position in the market. Together with the whole FL Technics group, we are now ready to provide even more tailored and efficient engine solutions in our quick-turn engine shop in Kaunas, Lithuania.”
Situated near the Kaunas International Airport (KUN), FL Technics Engine Services is a vital component of the comprehensive MRO hub for the region. With its own MRO hangar adjacent to the aircraft painting facility, the team supports clients and partners in diverse business cases, encompassing aircraft delivery projects, engine sales, trade contracts, and engine repair and teardown projects.
Clive Rankin, Head of Engines Programs at FL Technics said, “Supply and demand in the market is particularly tense for aircraft engines, as airlines and lessors are motivated to have as many aircraft airborne as possible. As a result, aircraft engines have become the most valuable asset to source in the market. Our new certification broadens the range of opportunities to service and supply engines not only within EASA and FAA regulated markets but now also allowing us to supply our customers with solutions in the UK market.”
