Inflite MRO-Services has secured a new, long-term contract with Spairliners GmbH, the Lufthansa Technik/Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance JV business, to handle component repair work on the Embraer E-Jet 170 and 190 airliners.

When work is set to commence in 2020, Inflite will be supporting a wide range of E-Jet rotable components for Spairliners’ E-Jet customers, including difficult to transport and hazardous items.

Work will be carried out at its dedicated components workshops at London Southend Airport.

Christoffer Creutz, managing director of Inflite MRO Services, commented: “This is a milestone win for our components business and we are delighted to be starting work with Spairliners, a prestigious company, supporting the industry’s leading regional jet family.” “It endorses the regular component work we have been doing on E-Jets these past few years and complements our role as Europe’s leading Authorised Service Centre on Embraer business jets, at our London Stansted Airport HQ.”
