In 2021, Direct Maintenance has integrated its Line Maintenance capabilities with Magnetic MRO. As one Line Maintenance, Direct Maintenance provides a full range of line maintenance solutions to support your operational needs. We value line maintenance as a critical part of any airline’s operations, as this is where daily operational activities happen. Thus we focus on supporting airlines to the highest dispatch reliability standards as well as professional and fast recovery from AOG situations. If it is possible to solve, we will take care of it.

What is it?

We open new line stations upon customer request to support aircrafts under the EASA 145 certificate and local authorities’ approvals. New line stations are opened with a 1-3 months lead time, depending on geography and a few operational factors.
