Nagpur: The Air India’s MRO Facility in the special economic zone (SEZ) of Multi-modal International Hub Airport at Nagpur (MIHAN) is set to work at its full potential from next month more than 10 years after its announcement in 2005.
With the entire requisite staff in place, the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility for Air India planes will take up complete check, called as D check in airlines parlance, of Boeing 777-300ER from February 15.
Deputy General Manager (Engineering) and Chief Maintenance Manager (CMM) of the MRO S S Quazi told The Indian Express, “We will have the entire staff of 61service engineers, eight tradesmen and 10 aircraft engineers in place for the D check by then. We have already shortlisted 50 service engineers and we already have 12 working for us at the MRO. The aircraft engineers, who have just retired from Air India services, are undergoing refresher course.”
The MRO had sought the services of Deccan Charters, a service provider company, for recruitment of staff. Boeing International had helped set up the 600 crore facility as part of the deal for sale of aircraft to India. It had been hanging fire for many years for various reasons.
