AMAC Aerospace's inauguration of its wide body hangar in Milas-Bodrum, Turkey was recently celebrated with over 100 guests from all over the world including politicians, airport authority officials, potential and existing clients, military personnel and the Turkish under secretary for the Ministry of Transport.
The new 4,626 sqm hangar will serve AMAC Aerospace's maintenance services in the Middle and Far East.
"We are aiming to turn Mugla into an aircraft maintenance base in the region. Our goal is to bring private and passenger planes here." said Kadri Muhiddin, group executive chairman and CEO of AMAC Aerospace.
To date, AMAC Aerospace is the first to use a mixed business model for this hangar facility where, during the winter months, the hangar carries out commercial line and base maintenance. During the summer months, the MRO services flip over to VIP business maintenance. The new hangar can also be used while aircraft owners spend their holidays at the Turkish Riviera and in the meantime, the maintenance on their private jet can be performed.
"Thanks to AMAC Aerospace Turkey, private jet owners in the Middle East will not have to go to Europe for the maintenance of their jets. We will be able to carry out the maintenance for all aircraft, from small sized jets to wide-body to aircraft. We want Turkey and Mugla to become a regional hub for aircraft maintenance," concluded Kadri Muhiddin, group executive chairman and CEO of AMAC Aerospace.
