A leading independent Maintenance Repair & Overhaul (MRO) provider in the U.K. prepares to open a new Component Maintenance Centre in Northampton, England, with operations planned to start this month.
Monarch Aircraft Engineering (MAEL) has invested approximately £2 million in this new center, which will include heat treating lines compliant to industry standard for standard processing and detail fabrication requirements, as well as hardness testing.
“Our new Northampton facility will enable us to more effectively and efficiently support our burgeoning line and base maintenance facilities across the UK,” said Chris Dare, Managing Director at Monarch Aircraft Engineering. “This multi-million-pound investment in new facilities, equipment and, most importantly, skilled engineering talent, is an integral part of our long-term growth plan and will play a vital role in our success in the years ahead.”
