Study Highlights Economic Risks of MRO Restrictions
“Global MRO Market Economic Assessment,” a study commissioned

“Global MRO Market Economic Assessment,” a study commissioned by the Aeronautical Repair Station Association (ARSA) and conducted by AeroStrategy, has yielded insight about the breadth of the aviation maintenance (MRO) industry and its impact on the U.S. economy.

The study sought to provide a base of information that would better allow MROs to understand the consequences of legislation that would make it harder for aviation maintenance companies to serve international operators, Sarah MacLeod, ARSA’s executive director, told AIN. She cited the
aviation bill passed by the U.S. House of Representatives earlier this year that the European Union has said violates existing treaties. The EU has threatened to retaliate against U.S. companies if it becomes law.
