Vallair, provider of integrated support for mature aircraft, engines and major components, is undertaking a comprehensive teardown of a 23-year-old Airbus 330 airframe on behalf of Danish spare components specialist, CORAX.<\/p>\n

Previously operated by Hong Kong Airlines, disassembly is 80% complete and when finished, Vallair claims that over 1,500 parts will have been removed as used serviceable material\u00a0(USM).<\/p>\n

Vallair says that its logistics team is currently processing, listing, and crating all parts for assessment prior to repair and sale by CORAX.<\/p>\n

Morten Espenhein, president of CORAX, said: “Realising the value of mature assets relies on fast and efficient disassembly practices that protect each part throughout the inspection and evaluation process.<\/p>\n

“Our global customer base enjoys unlimited access to one of the fastest growing aircraft component inventories in the world.<\/p>\n

“We have a commitment to innovation and expansion and that means sourcing both narrow and wide-body aircraft for teardown and managing the streamlined transition to USM in a cost-effective way.”<\/p>\n

Fran\u00e7ois Biarneix, operations director at Vallair<\/a> MRO in Ch\u00e2teauroux, said: “We are recognised as a leading independent provider of teardown services and have an extensive network for sourcing and disposal of assets.<\/p>\n

“Our teardown facility in Ch\u00e2teauroux, France, employs skilled and certified mechanics to identify, store and manage parts properly for maximum efficiency and asset value realisation.<\/p>\n

“We work in partnership with parts brokers, investors, lessors and MROs.”<\/p>\n
