FAI Technik Achieves Nigeria Approved Maintenance Organization Status

German MRO service provider FAI Technik GmbH, subsidiary of FAI Aviation Group Holding, announces that it has received an Approved Maintenance Organization certificate (AMO) from the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA). This approval means that FAI can now undertake a range of maintenance, repair and overhaul tasks on Nigerian-registered business aviation aircraft worldwide.   

The scope of this latest approval covers all of FAI Technik’s supported aircraft, including, the Bombardier Challenger BD-100, CL-600 series, BD-700-series and Learjet 60 aircraft; the full range of Hawker HS125 series; Beechcraft Premier 1/1A and King Air series aircraft as well line maintenance checks up to 1C for Gulfstream models including G280, G450, G500, G550, G650 and G650ER.

FAI Technik has been active in Nigeria for over a year, providing mostly AOG support through collaborations with local Part-145 maintenance organizations.  Following the approval, the MRO is now authorized to release Nigerian-registered aircraft under the FAI Technik brand. This will be carried out at either its Nuremberg (NUE) and Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) locations or locally at locations in Lagos and Abuja, Nigeria. It is anticipated that larger maintenance projects will be scheduled primarily in Nuremberg.
