A few of our projects

First A350 stripping and painting outside Airbus

Soon after expanding our comprehensive MRO services to include the Airbus A350, we carried out a C-check for our Latin American customer LATAM followed by full stripping and painting of the first A350 in our facility in Abu Dhabi. It is the first time an A350 aircraft has been painted in an MRO outside the Airbus network.

Complex A320 livery for Air Malta

The complex Air Malta livery for its A320 required strong expertise and experience in applying multi-layered designs to the fuselage. The livery was applied by the proficient team of Etihad Airways Engineering using stencils, masks, and different grades and layers of paint and the aircraft delivered to the customer's satisfaction.
