When (And Why) your Aircraft Needs component MRO

Global passenger demand continues to rise. Load factors hit a record 81.9% in 2018. Meanwhile, the fleet age at the nation’s Top 5 airlines is now 12.4 years old. To meet the market’s evolving needs, Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) spending is predicted to eclipse $116 billion in the next decade, reflecting the need to get aircraft back in the air as quickly as possible.

A key aspect of any MRO strategy, component MRO involves sourcing and fitting mechanical, structural, electrical, and hydraulic components with quick turnarounds. High-quality systems component MRO and structural component MRO solutions are key to keeping aircraft at peak performance during service life—and extracting maximum value once they transition into retirement.

When you need systems component MRO

As the name implies, this type of component MRO involves the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of an aircraft’s various systems. From hydraulics to pneumatics, experienced systems component MRO technicians understand the intricacies of the many units that keep an aircraft operating safely and efficiently. The best systems component MRO providers offer cost-saving repair and overhaul strategies, as well as engineered solutions designed to overcome complex systems component challenges. 

Seek out systems component MRO solutions when your aircraft requires service for its: 

• Hydraulics system components; seek out a provider who offers end-to-end in-house repair

• Fuel systems components including engine pumps, control units, and fuel actuators; repairs for issues such as faults and leaks; and solutions to satisfy the FAA’s FTFR rule

• Mechanical system components 
• Electrical system MRO in the areas of avionics, electronic accessories, and electromechanical components
• Pneumatics system components, including actuators, air cycle machines, starters, cooling turbines, fans, heat exchangers, PDUs, pressure switches, valves and more
