Airbus names new MRO partner in India
Airbus Helicopters has announced Indamer as its new authorized maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) provider in India
Indamer will provide MRO services to Airbus helicopters at its facilities in Mumbai, New Delhi, and Nagpur.
Airbus started that the partnership will provide ‘faster turnaround for servicing, and help create an efficient after-market experience for … customers, not only in India, but also in the wider South Asia region’.
“Building and supporting a sustainable end-to-end rotary-wing aviation ecosystem in India is key for Airbus Helicopters,” said Romain Trapp, Executive Vice President, Customer Support and Services for Airbus Helicopters. “With Indamer, we aim to cater to our growing fleet in India and the future potential while at the same time bring in the technical competencies that will help advance India’s helicopter MRO ambitions.”
Over 125 Airbus helicopters – including platforms such as the H125, H130, H135, H145, and AS365 Dauphin – are currently in use throughout India and South Asia.
Airbus Helicopters is expecting a surge in demand for its aircraft and services in the coming years across Asia. As well as India, the company expects Thailand’s public sector and military fleets to grow by 20 per cent in the next decade.
