BizJet Int’l Turns Focus to Commercial MRO Business
Plans major expansion of V2500 business

Tulsa, Oklahoma-based Lufthansa Technik subsidiary BizJet International Sales and Support has embarked on a large-scale expansion of its commercial engine MRO business as the company’s business-jet and VIP interior completions operations come to an end. Long a provider of engine MRO for Rolls-Royce Speys and Tays powering Gulfstream business jets, BizJet International quietly began performing MRO work—mainly by providing mobile engine services—on IAE V2500 turbofan engines for one major customer about a year ago. Now it plans to expand its V2500 business substantially in the three-year period from 2018 through 2020: “We’re open to the whole market,” BizJet president and CEO Volker Magunna told AIN.
