L-3 MAS, Lockheed Martin, AJW Technique discuss underserved MRO market, opportunities
MONTREAL, 3 Dec. 2013. Aircraft in-service costs exceed acquisition costs, constituting roughly 70 percent of the overall costs, says Marc-Andre Duranceau, vice president of aerostructures and aircraft service at L-3 Communications MAS in Mirabel, Quebec. Maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) is an underserved market, which creates both challenges and opportunities as organizations look to extend the life cycle of aircraft, Duranceau adds.
