This multi-year agreement will allow ST Engineering and Safran Aircraft Engines to meet the forecast rise of engine MRO activities as air travel gradually recovers from the pandemic.
Tay Eng Guan, VP/GM of Engine Services at ST Engineering, said, “As a licensed service centre for CFM56-5B and -7B engines, ST Engineering has built a longstanding and strong relationship with Safran. We are delighted to build on that partnership with this latest engine offload agreement.
