Air India to build Hyderabad MRO facility

In a bid to establish itself as a key player in the Indian MRO market, Air India has acquired five acres of land at the new Shamshabad Airport in Hyderabad where it is about to begin building a new MRO facility.

The facility – expected to be completed within 18 months – will include a new hangar capable of accommodating two A320 family aircraft simultaneously, or one B777/B747 aircraft.
