The FAA has issued a Part 145 repair station certificate to Meridian Helicopters, which is based in Broussard, Louisiana, and specializes in Bell 206 and 407 maintenance. The Part 145 approval will enable Meridian to expand its MRO and testing services and provide more comprehensive maintenance services.

Meridian’s capabilities include sheet metal and composite repairs, component overhauls, inspection and maintenance of Rolls-Royce M250-C20, -C28, -C30 and -C47 engines, avionics and instrument testing and installation, and pitot-static and transponder testing. Its sister company, Cadorath Aerospace, is a Rolls-Royce-authorized MRO facility for M250 and RR300 series engines, and this helps Meridian enhance “its service offering, providing clients with seamless and efficient support.” Meridian was established in 2010.
