S7 Technics has become the first maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) provider in Russia and the CIS to perform base maintenance checks on the advanced Airbus A320neo narrow-body aircraft.
The maintenance work was conducted at the company’s Moscow Domodedovo airport site and included the 7500 FH / 5000 FC / 24-month 1С-check. A320neos from the fleet of S7 Airlines have two PW1127 engines by Pratt & Whitney.
25 S7 Technics engineers were involved in the first heavy maintenance checks on the A320neos, including eight specialists with B-type licences. All in all, the task required 5,000 man-hours of labour and took six days for each completed check.
