BALI,November 29, 2024:
FL Technics Indonesia (PT Avia Technics Dirgantara), a subsidiary of global aviation maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) leader FL Technics, proudly unveils its new 17,000-square-meter MRO facility in Bali. Strategically located at I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS), this cutting-edge facility will serve the fast-growing MRO needs for narrowbody aircraft in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 family aircraft. The grand opening ceremony gathered esteemed aviation leaders, government representatives, and FL Technics’ parent company, Avia Solutions Group, to mark this milestone event.
“This facility is a testament to our commitment to Asia and Australia’s aviation growth. It will empower airlines to uphold the highest safety and efficiency standards,” said Zilvinas Lapinskas, Chief Executive Officer of FL Technics Group. “These three hangars represent a triumph for the region and our group, unlocking opportunities and driving progress for businesses and communities in Asia, Australia, and beyond.”
The new six-bay maintenance hub is purpose-built to support classic and next-generation models of the Boeing 737 and the Airbus A320 family, including current and new engine options. Designed to meet the growing regional demand for these aircraft types, the facility is equipped with dedicated production shops and offices, creating over 500 new jobs for the local economy. FL Technics Indonesia operates under Part-145 AMO certifications issued by the Indonesian Directorate General of Civil Aviation, and its services are also planned to achieve CASA, FAA, and EASA certificates of approval in the coming months.
“This expansion comes at a crucial time for the Asian aviation market,” said Martynas Grigas, CEO of FL Technics Indonesia. “With our advanced infrastructure and the presence of other Avia Solutions Group companies like BBN Airlines Indonesia, SkyTrans, and Thai SmartLynx, we’re poised to strengthen supply chains, bolster growth, and support airlines across the region and beyond.”
FL Technics’ new facility in Bali joins its extensive MRO network, which includes base maintenance hangars in Lithuania (Vilnius and Kaunas International Airports), the UK (Prestwick International Airport), Indonesia (Jakarta International Airport), and an upcoming location in the Dominican Republic (Punta Cana International Airport).
