In late April, the HAECO team took part in one of the aviation industry’s largest annual event, MRO Americas, held in Orlando, Florida, and organised by leading industry publication, Aviation Week. The HAECO Group was a Diamond Sponsor of this year’s exhibition. HAECO is also a member of the Aviation Week Commercial Advisory Board.
The HAECO booth proved to be a major talking point at the event, taking its design cues from the new hangar currently being built at its Greensboro, North Carolina headquarters, and highlighting the Group’s continuous investment and expansion efforts in the United States. The booth showcased HAECO’s breadth of products and capabilities from Airframe Services to Cabin Solutions, and representatives from the Group’s US, Hong Kong and Mainland China operations were on hand to ensure visitors to the stand received an expert briefing on HAECO’s aircraft engineering and maintenance support network worldwide. During the event, HAECO further strengthened its relationship with Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation by entering into a formal agreement to become a preferred airframe MRO partner for the Mitsubishi Regional Jet (MRJ) in North America.
On the final day of the exhibition, a team of HAECO mechanics took third place overall in the MRO/OEM Category of the MRO Americas Aerospace Maintenance Competition – providing a great testimonial to HAECO’s service excellence and technical expertise, and drawing the Group’s participation in MRO Americas 2017 to a very satisfactory conclusion.
