The certification was carried out by Civilian Aviation Administration of Lithuania.

“We expected to service first Airbus A320 aircraft in II Quarter of 2011, however it arrived even earlier. This shows the high demand for repair and maintenance services for Airbus A320 family aircraft in the region. With more than 20 years experience and a proven quality record, we hope to become a MRO of choice for Airbus A320 aircraft owners in EU and CIS countries” – said CEO FL Technics Jonas Butautis.
