Airbus expands MRO network


Airbus on Thursday announced Brazil’s TAM MRO has joined the Airbus MRO Network, becoming the 18th member. It currently provides services for the Airbus A320 and A330/A340 families in South America.
The aircraft manufacturer told attendees at the Aviation Week MRO Americas conference Thursday it has seen a growing group of customers under flight hour services. Last year it earned $700 million of additional flight hour services business, Airbus SVP-services and customer support Tom Anderson said. It is investing in a pool of parts to continue to support the flight hour services segment.
“Our continuous strategy is to support a growing fleet … tailor what we do to match the needs of the customers,” he said.
“Diversity in our customer base is driving us to be more tailored and more adapted in what we do,” Anderson said. “We went through a period of time when we tried to keep things simple … I’m taking … a different direction … we need to adapt.”
