Low-cost carrier flyadeal, a subsidiary of Saudi Arabian Airlines Corporation, has signed a seven-year TrueChoice\u2122 Overhaul agreement during the Dubai Airshow to cover CFM56-5B* engines that power its 11 A320-200 aircraft fleet. The TrueChoice Overhaul agreement provides time and material required to overhaul flyadeal\u2019s fleet of CFM56-5B engines.<\/p>\n
\u201cGE Aviation is honored to provide Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul services and material to support flyadeal\u2019s growth in the Middle East. This agreement will enable us to provide high-quality OEM service to keep flyadeal\u2019s CFM56-5B engine fleet flying,\u201d said Russell Stokes, GE Aviation Services president and chief executive officer.<\/p>\n
As part of the agreement, GE Aviation provided flyadeal an end-to-end engine management solution, combining engine overhaul services along with logistics for engine removals, changes and leases. Previously, the cost and logistics of engine removal, delivery and collection was the responsibility of the airline or lessor customer. The company\u2019s turnkey approach means these logistics will be handled by GE and its suppliers.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are delighted to be working with GE Aviation in developing its first integrated turn-key engine services program which addresses the complete A to Z needs of flyadeal under a single vendor agreement between GE and flyadeal. It\u2019s a testament to how a true low fare operator like flyadeal is driving innovation and change by working closely with key partners willing to adapt to the specific operational needs of flyadeal,\u201d said Mike Hewitt, chief operating officer of flyadeal.<\/p>\n
GE Aviation is providing flyadeal integrated overhaul and engine change services through Caerdav, an independent aviation Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) provider that is a GE vendor in this agreement.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis idea represents a new way of doing business for GE, and we are proud to be one of their trusted MRO suppliers. Through working closely with Caerdav, GE will be able to offer their customers a more streamlined, efficient and cost-effective way of managing their engine requirements,\u201d said Joachim Jones, group CEO for Caerdav.<\/p>\n
The TrueChoice suite of engine maintenance offerings incorporates an array of GE capabilities and customization across an engine’s lifecycle. Each TrueChoice offering is underpinned by GE Aviation Fleet Support’s 24\/7 Remote Monitoring and Diagnostics to help reduce maintenance burden and service disruptions for customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
