Liebherr-Aerospace has started the first overhaul of the Airbus A350 nose landing gear at its OEM facility in Lindenberg (Germany) – it is the first of this type and thus marks a historic milestone for the company that has developed and manufactured the system. 

The first of an operator’s A350 nose landing gear systems has already been inducted into the overhaul process at Liebherr-Aerospace’s site in Lindenberg (Germany). Utilizing its many years of experience as an OEM and competence center for the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) of landing gear systems, the company will perform all overhaul activities inhouse in its own facility.

Alex Vlielander, Chief Customer Officer at Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS commented: “We are very pleased to start with the overhaul of Airbus A350 nose landing gears. As an OEM and long-standing partner of the international aviation industry, we vest great importance in quality, reliability and safety. The close cooperation with the airlines is a testament to the trust our customers place in our expertise and technical know-how.” 

The nose landing gear system for the Airbus A350 has been developed, manufactured and certified by the Original Equipment Manufacturer Liebherr-Aerospace Lindenberg GmbH, Lindenberg (Germany), Liebherr’s center of competence for flight controls, landing gear systems, gears, gearboxes and electronics.
