AIESL MRO Gets FAA Approval
The AI Engineering Services Limited (AIESL), formerly Air India Engineering Services Limited, has received approval from the United States Aviation Regulator Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for the Airbus A320 Maintenance at its Mumbai facility.
In 2013 the company is founded as part of Air India Limited’s turnaround plan. Which involved dividing Air India’s engineering and ground handling services into two wholly-owned subsidiaries – AIESL and Air India Transport Services Limited (AITSL).
AIESL is treated as a separate profit center. Further, it provides maintenance repair and overhaul (MRO) services for Air India and other airlines.
AIESL MRO announced the feat on May 4th, 2023. Further, they wrote, “AIESL adds Laurel into its Approval Kitty, Proud to Announce that AIESL Facility at OAP, Mumbai has received FAA Approval. For carrying out base Maintenance activity on Airbus A320 family aircraft.

AIESL Privatisation
Air India is seeking a partnership with Lufthansa Technik of Germany, a leading provider of aircraft maintenance. Further from Air France-KLM’s engineering unit, to bid for AI Engineering Services Limited (AIESL).
Singapore Airlines, which owns 25.1% of Air India, will also participate in the consortium through its engineering arm, SIA Engineering Company Limited.
According to Campbell Wilson, the exclusion of AIESL from Air India has created a difficult road ahead for maintaining and servicing the airline’s fleet.
“The loss of Air India’s engineering credentials is one of the unfavorable surprises of privatization. AIESL will continue to offer services through the end of 2019. But given our growth, what happens next deserves careful thought,” Wilson had said.
