Pemco World Air Services (PEMCO) announced that it has received operation certification from the Unidad Administrativa Especial de Aviación Civil (UAEAC) of Colombia, the country’s Civil Aviation Authority, granting the MRO the ability to work on Colombian registered aircraft. It’s the latest milestone for PEMCO, whose maintenance division specializes in narrow-body and regional jet aircraft.

“This is a major step for our facility and demonstrates our team’s hard work to further our capabilities,” said Ernie Kiss, VP of quality and engineering.

The categories of certification include:

Class II Limited Airframe
Class IV Limited Instrument
Class III Limited Radio Navigation
Class I Limited Accessory
Class III Limited Powerplant
Class I & II Limited Specialized Services

“A number of operators have shown interest in our company obtaining Colombian certification,” said CEO Pastor Lopez. “We have now expanded our MRO capabilities to South America and will continue to provide quality service based on our four fundamental cornerstones.”

PEMCO’s four fundamental cornerstones are teammates, customer service, Lean, and metrics. Among its best-in-class aviation maintenance services, PEMCO provides light and heavy checks, modifications, line maintenance, and AOG field support.
