The 7,300 sqm Aeroplex Component Repair Center will address Europe’s shortage of repair services, with a capacity to service up to 20,000 aircraft wheels, 800 brakes, and nearly 30,000 engine components annually.

It is in Maglód, 29 km southwest of Central Budapest, about 15 km from the airport by road. 

Minister for National Economy Márton Nagy, speaking at the ceremony, stated the facility supports Aeroplex’s ambition to become a leading European maintenance, repair, and overhaul company. 

Managing director Árpá d Demény added that the investment would help meet growing demand across the aviation industry.
