FL Technics Achieves UK CAA Certification for CFM56 Engine Services

FL Technics has secured UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to extend its Part-145 maintenance capabilities to the CFM56 family of engines.

This recent certification win now means FL Technics is certified by the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) and EASA (European Aviation Safety Administration).

Valerij Deveikis, CEO of 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.”

FL Technics operates its own MRO hangar located near Kaunas International Airport, the company plays an integral part as an MRO hub in the region.

Clive Rankin, Head of Engines Programs at FL Technics noted that aircraft engines have become one of the most valuable assets to source in the market at present.

Supply and demand has been particularly tense for aircraft engines, with operators and lessors keen to have as many aircraft in the air as possible.

On this new UK CAA certification, he said: “[the 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.”
