Spirit Aeronautics has expanded their FAA Approved Capabilities List to include additional service ratings for turbine powered (jet) engines.

“Our customers are always looking for ways to minimise downtime and enhance the value of the services they receive from a provider like Spirit Aeronautics.”

Tony Bailey, president & COO of Spirit Aeronautics said: “Our customers are always looking for ways to minimise downtime and enhance the value of the services they receive from a provider like Spirit Aeronautics. For us, the objective has always been to increase our service offerings in a way that is responsive to our customer needs as well as responsible to our investors.”

“One way to achieve that goal is the addition of complementary services to our core business offerings and the ability to offer service on Pratt & Whitney JT-15, Pratt & Whitney PW545, Williams International FJ44-4, Rolls Royce AE 3007 and Honeywell (Garrett) TFE 731 engines fill that need. After working diligently with our FAA inspectors and demonstrating our abilities, we were granted the authorisations. We have also been granted the authority to add additional engine model types at will to our capabilities list provided we meet the requirements contained in our repair station manual. It is indeed a great accomplishment!” added Bailey.
