Fokker Aircraft Services (FAS) has been contracted to provide extensive maintenance and C-check including LH - RH Wing Service Bulletin A320-57-1154 and 1155 for AerCap's A320 aircraft.

With its extensive back shops, its support and services cover the overhaul and repair of landing gear, the aircraft interior — to include the reskinning of interior panels — emergency equipment, composites, tubes and welded assemblies, plus proprietary parts with expanded capabilities to include sheet metal work, speed shop (machining, milling, etc.), nondestructive inspection, surface treatment, painting of the livery in cooperation with MAAS, and other customized solutions.

“Our one-stop philosophy means that we can perform nearly all maintenance and repair tasks right here at our facilities,” sales director Michiel Van Aken said. “This is why we consistently meet our guaranteed turnaround times. The high importance we place on meeting our commitments proves the flexibility, quality and dedication of our maintenance engineers.”

Fokker Aircraft Service is an EASA, GCAA and FAA Part 145-approved maintenance facility. Located in the Netherlands, it boasts five hangars spanning 16,000 square meters. At any one time, the facility is able to accommodate up to four positions for Boeing 737 series and Airbus A320 family aircraft.

FAS’ capabilities are increasingly being used for Boeing 737 series aircraft and the Airbus A320 family along with other regional aircraft, such as Embraer and Bombardier.
