AAR-Indamer is a joint venture between AAR, a major MRO of the USA, and Indamer Technics Private Limited. Scindia inaugurated their world-class facility aimed at providing maintenance services to the fleet of aircraft operating in India and the nearby region.
AAR-Indamer’s greenfield facility is a result of combined efforts of AAR Corp and Indamer Aviation. Indamer Aviation is India’s oldest and largest general aviation MRO, the company said in a release.
