EirTrade Aviation Maintenance Ltd. has received EASA Part 145 Line Maintenance approval for its facility at Ireland West Airport, Knock, for the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 families of aircraft. The rigorous process took over a year, with the assistance of the Irish Aviation Authority, to establish the procedures, personnel, facilities, tools, and equipment needed to meet the requirements.
“EirTrade Aviation Maintenance’s approval will be hugely beneficial for the airport. It provides significant support for future airline and passenger growth at Knock. Our existing airline partners, Ryanair and Aer Lingus, will be able to access approved line maintenance services as well as on-site support that can deliver immediate action in the event of aircraft issues arising during operations. Having approved EASA Part 145 Line Maintenance located at Ireland West Airport will also be an added incentive in support of our ambitions to attract new airlines to develop their services at Knock,” said Joe Gilmore, Managing Director of Ireland West Airport.Read more stories...
