Pratt & Whitney opening new overhaul facility in Brazil

Pratt & Whitney is collaborating with Indύstria de Aviação e Serviços (IAS) to open a new overhaul facility in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, for PT6A and PW200 engines. Pratt & Whitney has operated in Brazil for more than 75 years and it’s said that this facility will build on on an existing service network in the country including Sorocaba, a hot section inspection and parts distribution centre. More recently, three sites joined the Pratt & Whitney designated maintenance facilities network in Brazil for the line maintenance and mobile repair of PT6A and helicopter engines.
