StandardAero (SARO) has signed a definitive 15-year agreement with a major Middle East airline to provide aftermarket services for the CFM International LEAP turbofan engine. Under the new agreement, StandardAero’s LEAP MRO facility in San Antonio, TX, will provide engine and engine component repair and overhaul, including LEAP performance restoration shop visits and continued time engine maintenance services in support of the airline’s fleet of new-generation narrowbody aircraft. StandardAero supports the LEAP-1A (Airbus A320neo) and LEAP-1B (Boeing 737 MAX) as a CFM LEAP Premier MRO provider, having signed the first non-airline CFM Branded Service Agreement (CBSA) in the Americas for the LEAP-1A and LEAP-1B in March 2023. The 810,000 sq. ft. San Antonio facility initially began accepting light workscope LEAP shop visits in March 2024 and inducted its first PRSV workscope in the second half of 2024, after completing test cell correlation for both engine variants.
