SA MENA Avionics gains FAA maintenance approval

The company is an aircraft repair station operating at Bahrain International Airport and says it specialises in selling, installing, maintaining, repairing and troubleshooting the electrical devices and electronic instruments and systems on board aircraft.

Also, it provides highly specialised installation and implementation services for thermal imaging, communication and in-flight entertainment equipment used on fixed wing and rotary aircraft. As well as training.

Technical Manager, Mohammed Zainal, said:  “Our services fill a void in the market today. Most aircraft operators have had no choice but to remove the faulty devices from the aircraft and send them offshore for repair. By providing the service locally or regionally, the delays and costs are dramatically reduced, allowing the aircraft to return to service sooner. We are also seeing high demand for our battery services.”

Ralph Eisenschmid, General Manager, added:  “These approvals are the direct result of a lot of hard work by the entire team. They deserve a lot of credit for establishing an internationally recognised aeronautical organisation with very unique capabilities. We also are very appreciative of the support provided by the regulators at Bahrain's Civil Aviation Affairs.”
