Name: Laying the Groundwork for Aviation's Maintenance Demand – AIN Roundtable
Uploaded: 2024-08-27T14:02:19.000Z
Description: Industry leaders discuss how to prepare for capacity limitations and for the future of the maintenance sector

As flight hours, aircraft orders, and charter and fractional sales soared during the pandemic and the immediate aftermath, maintenance shops found their hangars filled and backlogs growing. Capacity became an issue for many reasons: too much work all at once, a supply chain that still has not recovered from the disruptions of the pandemic, and a workforce shortage. Adding to that has been the growth in the number of larger aircraft and more extensive aircraft projects. AIN brought together thought leaders to discuss the quandary maintenance shops are facing in light of this, what they are doing to mitigate these issues, and how the future is shaping up for the sector. Here are some of the highlights from those discussions.
Duncan Aviation sponsored this roundtable.

News and issues about aviation maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), covering all segments of the aviation industry; and modifications for aircraft and engines. Subjects include product support of aircraft, engines and avionics, MRO company mergers, acquisitions, announcements and personnel, Airworthiness Directives, Supplemental Type Certificate approvals and other topics.
