Aircraft maintenance company, Nayak Aircraft Services, was recently performing an ‘A’ check on a Belleair (Albania) A319 Aircraft at Malpensa Airport, Milan and had neither the wash rig or tooling to carry out the required engine washes on the V2500 engines as part of the check. Nayak were keen to find out more about Juniper’s engine washing system and reckoned this to be a good chance to see the system in action and receive training in the use of the wash rig and tooling.
When they asked for our help we readily agreed and saw this as a good opportunity to show what Juniper equipment can do and demonstrate how cost effective our engine washing system was in comparison to most of the alternatives.
Air Italy, a Juniper customer also based in Malpensa, were kind enough to loan us their recently acquired 2×25 wash rig (JMP/CFM56/D/4777/C200) for the engine wash, and we took along a set of the V2500 short probes (JMP/V2500/D/4040) to complete the tooling.
Both the training and engine wash went well and Nayak personnel declared themselves impressed with the versatility and ease of use of the Juniper system.
