FL Technics has been granted EASA Part-145 approval for the heavy maintenance of Embraer 170/190 aircraft.
FL Technics provides heavy maintenance to Airbus and Boeing narrowbody fleet operators and anticipates growth for Embraer over the next decade. This projection highlights the growing importance of smaller narrow-body aircraft in supporting short-haul routes across Europe.
Zilvinas Lapinskas, CEO of FL Technics, said, “FL Technics invests in the future and continuity. As an MRO services leader, recognized as a top heavy maintenance provider for narrow-bodies, we are dedicated to transferring our extensive know-how to new capabilities and positioning ourselves to meet our clients' needs by servicing all types of aircraft. Our next step is to obtain approval for the maintenance of the E2 series of Embraer, a successor to the E170/E190 series.”
Juozas Lapeika, deputy CEO for Base Maintenance at FL Technics, added, “FL Technics’s goal is to expand and strengthen its presence in the global MRO solutions map by fulfilling the needs of our clients. Embraer is perfectly suited for short hauls in the European region, which many European operators, such as TAP Air Portugal, LOT Polish Airlines, Finnair, Air Dolomiti, Helvetic, KLM, Austrian Airlines, British Airways, SAS Link, and others, focus on.”
