Malaysia Airlines’ MRO Unit a Shadow of Former Self
Company turns focus to stabilizing and rebuilding its core airline business

Malaysia Airlines Berhad (MAB) has scaled down its engineering division from a major third-party maintenance repair and overhaul service provider to a purely self-supporting unit. MAB Engineering (MABE)—previously known as MAS Aerospace Engineering—became a world-renowned player in the MRO market, serving more than 100 airline customers at the peak of its operations with several certifications, including from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
