Airbus Insulation Farm-Out: a First
Airbus and Los Angeles-based Mexmil this month signed
an MoU for Mexmil to manufacture, market and distribute
proprietary Airbus spares for the thermo-acoustic insulation
blanket market. Their deal marks the first time that
an Airbus supplier takes responsibility “for the complete
supply chain of a range of Airbus proprietary parts right
through from manufacture to customer delivery,” the airframer says, stating that
“this new approach will significantly simplify the logistical process.” Advantages
include substantial reductions in spare parts lead times and costs, Airbus says. More
specifically, the MoU “paves the way for a reliable and low-cost solution to meet new
FAA FAR flammability requirements.” Airbus North America is at Booth 1510 here.
Aviall Pact with GE is its Biggest
Aviall is talking up its biggest deal ever, an agreement with GE Aircraft Engines giving
it worldwide aftermarket distribution rights for unique spare parts for the remaining
lifetime of widely-used GE CF6-50 and CF6-80A aircraft engines—an exclusive
it says could be worth $5 billion over the life of the agreement. With a global installed
base of more than 1,500 aircraft, annual sales are expected to average $300 million in
the first ten years of the pact, Aviall says. Aviall (Booth 1616) is also promoting a new
helicopter support program dubbed LIFT, for Logistics and Inventory Flight Team.
AAR Is to Maintain United 737s...
Illinois-based AAR Corp (Booth 1522) has a deal to be the
exclusive provider of heavy maintenance for United Airlines’
fleet of Boeing 737s. The five-year pact calls for AAR Aircraft
Services to operate as many as four maintenance lines at the
Indianapolis International Airport. The agreement “has successfully
reduced United’s cost for this work while maintaining the highest level of
quality,” United base maintenance vp Bill Norman says in an AAR release.
...Sells Engine Unit to Chromalloy
AAR said in February that it sold its engine component repair unit to Chromalloy Gas
Turbine while at the same time forging a multi-year parts supply agreement. AAR also
reports being selected by the U.S. Air Force for the overhaul of selected afterburner
module components for Pratt & Whitney F100 engines.
Lufthansa Technik Boosts U.S. Work
Lufthansa Technik (Booth 822) has won a major engineering contract in
the U.S. with Southwest Airlines, extending the foothold it won last year
with its first major component deal in North America, with Spirit
Airlines. The two firsts are the start of what it hopes will be significant
expansion in the U.S. market, according to Johannes Bussmann, who was
appointed vp for marketing for commercial airlines in North America at
the beginning of April.
The deal with Southwest utilizes Lufthansa Technik’s decade-long experience in MSG-
3 maintenance planning to implement that change for the airline’s fleet of Boeing 737 classic
aircraft, which is expected to result in savings on maintenance costs of up to 30%. The
contract with Spirit Airlines calls for 15 years of Total Component Support for the airline’s
rapidly growing fleet of A320 family aircraft. In separate news here LHT said it is growing
its Tulsa composites operation to include thrust reversers and inlets on PW2000 and
V2500 engines and CFM56-3 thrust reversers.

Lufthansa Technik TCS for Gulf Air
In what it’s calling the largest such contract
in the Middle East region, estimated
to be worth more than $100 million over
five years, Lufthansa Technik (Booth 822)
will provide its Total Component Support
services to Gulf Air for Boeing 767 and
Airbus A320/330/340 aircraft—now numbering nearly three dozen. The TCS deal
provides for sale and lease-back of components, as well as their MRO and access to
what LHT calls its “vast component pool.” Gulf Air president and CEO James Hogan
said he likes the idea of a complexity-reducing turnkey solution, adding, “By tapping
into Lufthansa Technik’s vast resources, we will also achieve economies of scale we
could not possibly attain independently.” It’s the first time that Lufthansa Technik will
