Lufthansa Technik Middle East continues on growth path

Facility space doubled in the Mohammed bin Rashid Aerospace Hub, at Dubai South

Lufthansa Technik Middle East is profiting from the steadily
expanding aviation market in the Gulf region. To meet growing
customer demands, the company has doubled the size of its facilitiy
and added new services to its portfolio. In the second half of 2018
the facility has already been successfully audited by the German
Federal Aviation Office (LBA).

The hangar and workshop space at the main facility in the Mohammed
bin Rashid Aerospace Hub at Dubai South was enlarged from 2,500 to
5,000 square meters - only one year after the opening of the
location.

The additional space enables Lufthansa Technik Middle East to
increase its capabilities for Airframe Related Components (ARC®), for
example composite repairs on components such as the inlet cowls of
the Boeing 787. New nacelle and radome spares for Boeing 787, 777 and
Airbus A320 aircraft were acquired. Additional local mobile support
teams can now perform on-wing work for certain repairs at customer
sites within the region, significantly reducing costs and turnaround
times. Further possible services are currently in preparation.

Tahnoon Saif, CEO, Mohammed bin Rashid Aerospace Hub said "Lufthansa
Technik is one of the leading aviation suppliers in the world and we
are delighted to see that their facility has doubled in size within
the first year of operation at the Mohammed bin Rashid Aerospace Hub.
We look forward to developing their offering at the Aerospace Hub,
and will continue to support their growth and development."

Besides its recently expanded facility at Mohammed bin Rashid
Aerospace Hub, Lufthansa Technik Middle East also operates a
warehouse at Dubai airport, where more and more parts are stored for
local spares support. The company also offers AOG support, landing
gear services, engine wash services and a local material support
desk. Further evaluation of additional capabilities for the region is
ongoing.
