Leading regional aircraft MRO managing director, Franck Scherer, told Orient Aviation “it remains difficult to predict a time frame for recovery from the pandemic because it is very dynamic. “Recovery is not only different in each region, but per segment in our industry. We are seeing big differences in these areas’’, the Fokker Services Asia boss said. “The recent spike of the Delta variant across Southeast Asia and Australia, combined with a low rate of vaccinations, suggests the region will not return to pre-COVID volumes anytime soon. We are following all scenarios, but expect full recovery will be years away as also predicted by many consultants to our markets. Nevertheless, being well positioned in the regional aircraft market means we will be at the front of the MRO pack as domestic flights across the region slowly grow again,” he said.
