Provider of aerospace engine aftermarket services StandardAero has completed its 4,000th MRO workscope on the GE Aerospace CF34 turbofan engine.
Peter Wheatley, vice president and general manger of CF34/CFM56 at StandardAero, said the achievement “is a testament to StandardAero’s commitment to meeting the needs of CF34 operators worldwide.”
StandardAero is a GE-authorised MRO provider for both the CF34-3 which powers the Bombardier Challenger 601/604/605/650 business jet family and the MHI RJ Aviation CRJ100/200 regional jet airliner, and for the CF34-8, which equips the Embraer E170/E175-E1 and MHIRJ CRJ700/900/1000 regional jet families.
StandardAero was appointed as a GE Aerospace Authorised Service Provider (ASP) for the CF34-3 and CF34-8 in 2001, and the company opened its state-of-the-art CF34 facility in Winnipeg, MB in April 2002.
The company’s first CF34 test cell was achieved in September 2002, paving the way for StandardAero to provide a full range of services – including overhaul – to CF34 operators worldwide.
In 2013, StandardAero was named by GE Aerospace as the world’s first independent TRUEngine authorised MRO provider for the CF34, assuring operators and asset managers of the highest levels of quality and technical excellence.
Wheatley added: “From engine overhauls to on-wing field service and engine health monitoring data analysis, StandardAero and our team of experienced technicians will be here to support the global CF34 operator community for decades to come.”
In addition to its ASP and TRUEngine approvals, StandardAero also offers CF34 Authorised Line Service maintenance from its facility in Augusta, GA, USA. StandardAero has supported CF34-3 business jet applications as an Authorised Service Center (ASC) since 2012. The company also provides engine health monitoring (EHM) data analysis support from its facility in Gonesse, France.
