The agreement follows after the Japanese Civil Aviation Bureau (JCAB) awarded certification to AAR. This certification permits the company to cater to airlines in the Japanese market.

AAR Parts Supply SVP Sal Marino said: “MHIAEL is a key player in the Japanese and global aviation market, and this agreement is AAR’s first parts supply deal with an engine MRO company in the region and our largest contract in Japan.

“AAR is certified compliant with Japanese regulations, and we have the global capabilities and facilities to serve Japan-based customers wherever they do business. We’re very excited for what’s to come with this partnership and our plans in the Japanese market.”
