Alliance Air signs fleet maintenance pact with P&WC

Air India's regional carrier Alliance Air has signed a three-year agreement with Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) to deliver fleet maintenance services and support for PW127M engines, the Canadian company said today.
"We continue to deliver highly flexible solutions, personalised to the needs of each fleet and airline," said Frederic Lefebvre, Vice President, Regional Airlines, P&WC, in a statement today.
"With every tailored maintenance solution, we focus on maximised aircraft availability and optimised maintenance operations. Alliance Air is an important regional carrier serving the Indian population," he said.
Customised specifically to Alliance Air, the engine maintenance agreement will support the company's technical and business needs as well as help lock in lower maintenance costs and simplify fleet operations management.

They also enable airlines to focus on their core business of passenger and cargo transportation.
"The PW127M engines powering Alliance Airs ATR aircraft will be maintained at our facility located in Singapore which this year is celebrating its 35th anniversary of operation," added Lefebvre.
P&WC, a subsidiary of United Technologies Corporation, is participating at the Singapore Airshow.
