MIAMI, 8 April 2014. AeroTurbine Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of International Lease Finance Corp. (ILFC), has expanded its aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) facility in Goodyear, Ariz.
The expansion added a second hangar with an additional 100,000+ square feet of space, in which the company will provide maintenance services for its growing business of providing narrowbody aircraft maintenance and 757 P2F conversions.
Operating at Goodyear Airport, AeroTurbine's MRO facility now incorporates 352,000 square feet of hangar space and shops that support maintenance, modifications, avionics installs, painting, logistics, and more than 34 acres of aircraft storage, as well as disassembly for both widebody and narrowbody aircraft.
