PUBLISHING DATE: 26th March 2027
- PMA, DER and USM Go Mainstream
With OEM parts expensive and difficult to obtain, examine the economics and growing importance of PMA parts, DER repairs, used serviceable material and alternative repairs. IATA is explicitly calling for greater aftermarket competition and access to alternative parts and approved repairs. - Is AI Helping on the Hangar Floor
This story will identify AI applications that are actually working in our industry: troubleshooting, manual searches, technical records, work cards, planning, reliability, inspection and inventory, and quantify the ROI. - Managing the New MRO Supply Chain
Parts scarcity may be structural rather than temporary. How are MROs changing purchasing, inventory, supplier relationships and maintenance planning accordingly? - Maintenance Planning Gets Smart
What products can help with scheduling that simultaneously considers aircraft, mechanics, qualifications, tooling, parts, hangar bays and task dependencies? - Is Predictive Maintenance Actually Paying Off?
Move beyond explaining predictive maintenance. Ask operators for measurable results: fewer removals, fewer AOGs, increased dispatch reliability, maintenance hours saved and actual ROI.

- Hangar planning & scheduling
Which software products help with materials, resources, heavy-maintenance production scheduling and execution. - Will Robots be Joining the Maintenance Crew
Practical uses of robotics and cobots for inspection, washing, sanding, painting, drilling, NDT, engine work and repetitive component maintenance. The question isn’t whether robots replace mechanics—it is which jobs mechanics shouldn’t have to do. - Save the Mechanic’s Body
Creepers, ergonomic tools, lift-assist equipment, exoskeletons, component manipulators and improved PPE can help improve the quality of work life for technicians. - The Connected Mechanic
Tablets, wearables, AR, voice interfaces, remote assistance and AI working together. Instead of another AR story, ask whether the “connected mechanic” can measurably increase wrench time and reduce errors. - The New Geography of MRO
Where will the next major maintenance centers be built? Follow investment into India, Southeast Asia, China and the Middle East and compare labor, infrastructure, airline growth, government support and training pipelines.
