On January 22nd, Comlux America was awarded a Foreign EASA 145 Certificate making them the first stand-alone EASA certificate holder in the U.S.. This certification authorization allows Comlux to perform base maintenance and interior completions on European Union (EU) registered aircraft not type certificated by the FAA. Since 2011 Comlux America has held an EASA supplement to their FAA Part 145 that allowed for maintenance and completions of EU registered aircraft. This as well as many other supplements (Korea, Saudi, Brazil, Bermuda, & Aruba, to name a few) remain in place today.
“A Foreign EASA 145 Certificate for Comlux America opens the doors for even more opportunities in the future for Comlux,” stated Arnaud Martin EVP Comlux the Aviation Group. “This certification demonstrates the high quality of our organization fully recognized on both sides of the Atlantic, an advantage over our US and European based competitors, as we can now perform work just as if we were based in Europe.” Martin went on to say, “With the combination of this new certification and the value of the dollar, Comlux is more competitive than ever.”
Comlux America recently completed a hangar expansion to allow for wide body aircraft. The induction of the first wide body aircraft, an A330 completion, took place in Q4 2015. There are currently three aircraft under completion at the facility based at Indianapolis International airport.
Comlux America located in Indianapolis, Indiana is part of Comlux The Aviation Group, a leading provider of worldwide VIP aviation services that includes aircraft management, VIP charter, aircraft sales and acquisitions, aircraft cabin designs and completions, aircraft engineering service, aircraft maintenance, refurbishments and system upgrades.
