FL Technics adds 4 new aircraft approvals in UAE expanding wide-body portfolio

FL Technics subsidiary FL Technics LLC, which provides Line Maintenance services across the Middle East, has expanded its approved capabilities by adding Airbus A350, Boeing 777, Boeing 787, and Boeing 737 MAX with LEAP-1B approvals. These added approvals for wide-body aircraft complement the company’s existing narrow-body capabilities.

The approvals will apply at 3 major airports in the UAE: Zayed International Airport (AUH), Dubai International Airport (DXB), and Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC). It will also provide FL Technics LLC to service the added aircraft types across its managed outstations in the region.

Adding these aircraft to its service capabilities ensures FL Technics now covers a significant part of narrow-body and wide-body types that are most relevant to international operations. Furthermore, as airlines across the region introduce new-generation aircraft, FL Technics is set up to continue supporting airlines.

“These approvals represent a new chapter in our growth and an important step in the continued development of FL Technics LLC, as we steadily expand our technical capabilities to meet the changing fleet requirements of airlines in the region. Our objective is to provide airlines with greater access to capable and reliable line maintenance support across our UAE stations, while also supporting their regional operations and outstation requirements as our network continues to develop,” said Arif Alameri, CEO of FL Technics LLC.

The Airbus A350, Boeing 777, Boeing 787, and Boeing 737 MAX with LEAP-1B are all now included within the company’s approved capability. FL Technics LLC already has the organisational capacity, expertise, and technical infrastructure to support these aircraft within the approved scope.

“The UAE is a critical hub for airlines operating in the region and beyond. Our ambition is to further strengthen our presence here, while growing to support airlines not only at our UAE stations but increasingly across their wider network. With the new additions, our Line Maintenance capabilities now cover 11 aircraft types – and we aim to expand this range according to our customers’ needs. From daily checks and borescope inspections to 24/7 AOG support, defect rectifications, troubleshooting, flight spanner and engine changes, our experienced engineers are ready to support operations whenever and wherever needed. That flexibility has already been proven in practice: over the past two years, our engineers have completed more than 1,500 flying-spanner assignments for our customers,” added Arif Alameri.
