5 Repair services

Repair management of rotable aircraft components is a serious task, with many potential obstacles and major costs involved. Considerable time is required to monitor the large number of repair shops needed to maintain the assortment of rotable components. Actual repair costs often vary from one repair to another, making budgeting and cash flow management difficult. The small volume of busi- ness that a single airline can provide to a repair shop also impacts pricing levels.
