In the aerospace context, MRO stands for Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul. It refers to the set of activities carried out to keep an aircraft, spacecraft or other aerospace equipment in good working condition. MRO is an essential part of the aerospace industry, as it ensures that aircraft and other equipment are safe and reliable for operation.

MRO activities can include:

  • Scheduled maintenance: This includes regular inspections, checks, and servicing of aircraft and equipment to ensure that they are in good working condition and comply with safety regulations.
  • Unscheduled maintenance: This includes repairs and replacements of parts and systems that have failed or are showing signs of wear and tear.
  • Overhaul: This includes more extensive maintenance activities such as the rebuilding or replacement of major components, such as engines and landing gear.

Examples of MRO services include:

  • Airframe maintenance: This includes activities such as inspections, repairs, and overhauls of the fuselage, wings, tail and other parts of the aircraft.
  • Engine maintenance: This includes activities such as inspections, repairs, and overhauls of the engines and their components.
  • Avionics maintenance: This includes activities such as the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of the electronic systems and instruments used in aircraft and spacecraft.

MRO companies are responsible for ensuring that aircraft and other equipment are safe, reliable, and comply with safety regulations. They provide a wide range of services that include scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, overhaul, and repair of aircraft, engines, avionics and other aerospace equipment. Examples of MRO companies include Lufthansa Technik, AAR, and HAECO.
