Delta TechOps marked a significant milestone at the 29th annual MRO Americas event, coinciding with its 25 years of serving third-party customers in the maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) sector. The event took place in Atlanta, serving as a platform to discuss trends, technologies, and strategies for the commercial aviation MRO industry.
President of Delta TechOps and Chief of Operations, John Laughter, inaugurated the show. He emphasized the importance of celebrating the centennial year and acknowledged the efforts of Delta TechOps' workforce. "It's so important as we're celebrating this special centennial year, that we remember the people in Delta TechOps and all that they’ve done over this century to fuel this great airline," expressed Laughter.
Laughter also reflected on Delta’s strategy to offer both legacy and next-generation MRO capabilities. "Our ability to support the legacy fleets is an area where the great knowledge and expertise that you have over 20 and 30 years of working on a platform gives us the ability to really deliver value in the final decades of a platform's life. But just as critical is investing in the next-gen opportunities. I look forward to our industry all working together to power our next hundred years," he stated.
