American Airlines announced on Sept. 9 that it added 500 new jobs to support expanded MRO work.

Malaysia Airlines says poor reliability of rotables and CFM56 engines coupled with the departure of engineering talent led to the spate of service disruptions.

The airline is planning significant MRO growth as it prepares for an expanded fleet and its impending Vistara merger.

The Japanese companies will explore potential collaborations in areas including maintenance, parts supply and refurbishment.

SIA Engineering Co. expects growth in the Asia-Pacific region and artificial intelligence to accelerate business opportunities.

The updates would be the second major changes in two years to International Aviation Safety Assessment policy.

Resource Group’s director of operations outlines the importance of compliance in MRO labor supply as more companies turn to temporary hiring pipelines.

The company’s Bay of Excellence initiative blends “the Japanese continuous improvement mindset and American and Canadian ingenuity.”
