Eagle Copters certified to work on Japanese rotorcraft
Eagle Copters is now able to perform non-specialised maintenance and alterations on aircraft and components under the Japan Civil Aviation Bureau as an approved maintenance organisation, expanding its footprint.
With the help of Transport Canada and K-R Aircraft, Eagle has demonstrated its abilities in the global environment.

Eagle Copters Maintenance, a Canadian helicopter support provider based in Calgary, has received approval from the Japan Civil Aviation Bureau (JCAB) as an approved maintenance organisation for Japanese registered helicopters. The full complement of Eagle services is now available to owners and operators alike.

With the help of Transport Canada and K-R Aircraft, Eagle has demonstrated its abilities in the global environment. This allows Eagle to perform non-specialised maintenance and alterations on aircraft and components under the JCAB as an approved maintenance organisation (AMO). This certification approval from JCAB further expands Eagle's worldwide fleet management capabilities to operators within the Japanese market.

The JCAB-AMO certification will allow Eagle to support JCAB-licensed operators on major inspections, overhauled Bell components, including rotors, transmissions and accessories, within a feasible timeframe to accomplish their current missions.

“We are pleased to expand the Eagle capability footprint in Japan. This could not have been done without the dedicated support of our team and partners. Eagle looks forward to providing solutions in this part of the world,” says Mike O'Reilly, president and CEO of Eagle Copters.
