“This conference is the single most important networking event for the engine propulsion community.”

CINDY RAMSEY ENGINE PROGRAM MANAGER CHROMALLOY

“If your market is engine related, this is the show to attend. Highly focused and with the right decision makers present.”

ANDREW WALMSLEY PRESIDENT VOLO AERO MRO

Maintenance capacity remains heavily constrained across engine generations.

Focussing on the new generation narrowbody fleet, 90% of respondents in audience polls stated they were waiting 30 plus days for LEAP & GTF maintenance slots.

Key Takeaways

Intellectual property protection on new-generation engines is a key challenge for MROs. More collaboration is needed with the OEMs on repair licensing to help alleviate market pains.

Material strategies such as PMAs, DERs and USM continue to grow in popularity. An audience poll identified a lack of OEM material availability and improving perceptions as the two leading factors impacting adoption.

“The most important engine specific conference in aviation.”
