2Excel Engineering has secured UK Civil Aviation Authority Part 147 approval for maintenance training at its Hampshire, UK base at Lasham Airfield. Under the approval, the company’s Part 66 maintenance training school can now conduct B1 and B2 type rating courses for Boeing 727 and King Air 200-series aircraft. With the new accreditation, 2Excel can train its own licensed mechanics to ensure it has access to enough maintenance professionals to support and expand its MRO business.

“This achievement not only serves as a powerful tool for recruiting new talent but will also play a pivotal role in retaining existing employees by providing them with valuable career development opportunities and expanding their skill sets,” said 2Excel CEO Matt Caswell.
