MRO Europe 2022: Pratt & Whitney welcomes Iberia Maintenance to the GTF MRO network
Pratt & Whitney have announced at MRO Europe that it will expand its global network of providers that maintain the Pratt & Whitney GTF™ engine to include Iberia Maintenance, the maintenance and engineering division of Iberia Airlines.
The announcement was recognised in a signing ceremony, attended by Marc Meredith, Executive Director of GTF Engine Aftermarket at Pratt & Whitney, and Andy Best, Chief Technical Officer for Iberia. The facility will service PW1100G-JM engines for the A320neo family with full disassembly, assembly and test capability.
“With increasing engine orders, we continue to grow our MRO presence with capable, quality maintenance providers worldwide to ensure proximity and seamless service to our customers,” said Meredith. “Already a proven MRO provider for the V2500 engine, Iberia Maintenance’s skill and experience will be a strong asset to the GTF MRO network.”
“We are proud to receive Pratt & Whitney’s confidence and to take this strategic step in the development of our engine business, which will allow us to consolidate our position as a full-service provider in single aisle fleets while ensuring the continuity of our workshop at the forefront of the industry’s technology,” said Best.
