Aircraft Refurbishment: How It Works

Report this content

As a fundamental aspect of civil helicopter operations, civil helicopter MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) ensures the preservation of rotorcraft in predetermined conditions of airworthiness in order to guarantee safety of operations, passengers and crew. Since the MRO sector is heavily regulated by national and international aviation regulatory bodies, operators and OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) are required to adhere to stringent regulations and practices regarding MRO work. Companies that conduct these services require approval and certification of their facilities and operations by necessary aviation safety bodies.
MRO consists of a variety of maintenance and repair services ranging from line maintenance to heavy maintenance, which involves the disassembly of airframes and engines for component inspection and repair as well as testing prior to being resold and returned to service. In November 2014, business intelligence provider Visiongain reported that the global civil helicopter MRO market would reach $6.784 Billion by year’s end. Furthermore, the civil helicopter MRO market will continue to post positive growth over the next decade.

Drivers for MRO market growth include:
  • Backlog of new helicopters forcing operators to explore more cost-efficient options, such as refurbished helicopters

  • Need to meet essential regulations that ensure safety of flight operations, passengers, and crew

  • Demand from civil end users for high altitude and versatile helicopters.
