StandardAero's helicopter programmes unit has signed three new maintenance facilities to become Rolls-Royce RR300 engine authorised support centres (ASC).

Alpha Aviation Co of Tokyo, Japan, Helisul Taxi Aereo Ltda of Curitiba, Brazil, and Florida Suncoast Helicopters in Sarasota, Florida, are now strategically aligned with StandardAero to support the RR300 engine in their respective territories. In addition, existing RR300 ASCs Genesis Helicopter Service in Calgary, Alberta, Rotorcraft Support Inc in Filmore, California, Eagle Copters South America in Santiago, Chile, and Taller Piza in Veracruz, Mexico, have all been renewed.

As an ASC, these seven facilities are authorised to provide line maintenance and engine repair with specialised tooling and factory trained technicians. Heavy maintenance and overhaul are performed at StandardAero's facilities in Winnipeg and Richmond in British Columbia, Canada; Concord, North Carolina; and Portsmouth, United Kingdom, under an approved maintenance, repair and overhaul centre (AMROC) license from Rolls-Royce.

“Today's announcement underscores StandardAero's strategic alliances to provide the operators in these geographic markets with the world class RR300 servicing that StandardAero is known for,” says Cory Waldmo, director of customer service for StandardAero helicopter programmes. “We look forward to working closely with our ASC partners to support the MRO needs of their customers. There are now over 1,000 RR300 engines in service worldwide.”
