Power by the hour programs for small fleets

“With eJet we now support small charter and scheduled airlines with fixed-cost maintenance programs with the same exacting standards that Lufthansa Technik applies to larger carriers. Our joint product provides access to fleet based pricing and support while providing the personalized VIP service demanded by this market segment.”

Launched in 2008, the eJet Services program offers owners and small fleet operators a comprehensive, one-stop global package of nose-to-tail maintenance and operating support. In close partnership with key MROs including Lufthansa Technik, eJet provides owners and operators with lower, more predictable costs, fleet-based purchasing and efficiency, and 24/7 concierge support through eJet¹s maintenance and engineering support center located in Cincinnati, Ohio.

eJet offers a unique cost-per-flight-hour program for Bombardier CRJ-200/700/900, Challenger 604/605/800/850, Boeing 737 family and Airbus A320 family aircraft (including both passenger and VIP conversions) that covers engines, avionics, rotables, landing gear, auxiliary power units, wheels and brakes. All key systems are covered, including electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic and environmental components.

Lufthansa Technik and other MRO partners provide global maintenance, repair and overhaul capability and logistics while eJet provides 24/7 concierge support, maintenance control, diagnosis, parts tracking and record keeping, maintenance planning tools, logistics management and tracking, and a customized maintenance program for individual operators that can reduce inspection and heavy maintenance costs by up to 20%. The joint program is both JAR OPS and FAA Part 21 compliant.

The joint product is ideal for individual owners and small-fleet operations (including sub-fleets of major airlines) which do not have sufficient volume to enroll aircraft in traditional fixed-cost maintenance programs. eJet¹s maintenance control capability will augment existing engineering and maintenance planning functions in these small fleet operations, allowing the carriers to leverage the global capability of Lufthansa Technik.
