StandardAero announced on June 16, 2025, its selection by SalamAir, Oman’s low-cost carrier, to provide maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) support for the CFM International LEAP-1A turbofan engines. These engines power SalamAir's fleet of Airbus A320neo family narrowbody aircraft. This agreement expands StandardAero's growing list of LEAP operators.
StandardAero provides support for the LEAP-1A and LEAP-1B engine family from its 810,000 sq. ft. facility in San Antonio, Texas, as a CFM LEAP Premier MRO provider. The company signed the first non-airline CFM Branded Service Agreement (CBSA) in the Americas for these engines in March 2023. SalamAir currently operates a fleet of 13 Airbus A320/321 aircraft and plans to expand to 25 aircraft by 2028.
This contract reinforces StandardAero's global reach and expertise in supporting next-generation engine platforms in the Middle East region. The company's Component Repair Services team has industrialized over 300 component repairs for the LEAP-1A and LEAP-1B, further enhancing its comprehensive service offerings.
