Vector Aerospace (Booth 2640) of Slemon Park, Prince Edward Island, is showcasing its engine MRO services at NBAA 2014, in particular highlighting the capabilities of the company’s Engine Services-Atlantic (ES-A) and France-based Seca divisions. Vector holds approvals to support a wide range of General Electric, Honeywell, Pratt & Whitney Canada, Rolls-Royce and Turbomeca engines.

Illustrating the company’s global expansion, Vector ES-A will open a designated overhaul facility for the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW150A next month in Singapore, at Seletar Aerospace Park. In another development, ES-A recently signed a three-year agreement to continue fixed-wing engine MRO for the Solenta Aviation Group, headquartered in South Africa and which operates a fleet of PT6A- and PW100-powered turboprops. ES-A has been working with Solenta for nearly a decade.

In addition to its engine business, Vector Aerospace offers airframe and avionics MRO and engineering services. The company’s Helicopter Services-North America (HS-NA) division has recently added the Airbus Helicopters AS332L1 to its STC for a cockpit voice and flight data recorder upgrade. Last year the STC was issued for the AS332C and AS332L.

HS-NA has also announced this month a five-year agreement with the Sheriff’s Department here in Florida’s Orange County to support a fleet of Airbus Helicopters AS350 Squirrels and Bell UH-1H helicopters.
