Aircraft maintenance provider Magnetic MRO has announced the completion of its 900th base maintenance check, delivered for long-standing customer Scandinavian Airlines (SAS).
The firm said that completing the extensive six-year base maintenance check on the A320neo family aircraft is a testament to the partnership and the expanding scale of maintenance operations over the years.
Base maintenance director at Magnetic MRO, Sergei Shkolnik, said: “This 900th check is another significant accomplishment for Magnetic MRO’s base maintenance. The project signifies the increase in pace: it has taken 11 years to reach the first 300 checks, six years to go from 300 to 600 checks, and 4.5 years to complete 900.
“Another noteworthy nuance of this 900th check is that it is performed on new generation A320neo family aircraft, which form the backbone of the European aviation single-aisle commercial fleet for the coming future.”
The collaboration with SAS and Magnetic MRO for maintenance provisions began back in 2003, with hundreds of checks completed on different aircraft models ever since.
