StandardAero announced today that it has signed Mirabel Heli Support, Inc., in Mirabel, Quebec, as an Authorized Support Center for Turbine Engine MRO. The agreement is for one year and includes optional one-year extensions at the end of each expiry date.

“Today’s announcement establishes a three-fold strategic alliance between the end operator, StandardAero, and Mirabel Heli Support Inc.,” said Tom Roach, vice president, Helicopter Programs, StandardAero. ” The agreement benefits companies in eastern Canada looking for StandardAero’s quality service and reputation offerings. It also forwards our ambitions to be more personal with the Mirabel region customers and more in touch with their operating needs.””

The designation provides Rolls-Royce M250 operators in eastern Canada with another reliable one-stop-shop for complete airframe and engine maintenance. Mirabel Heli Inc was formed in January 2009 by Director of Maintenance Patrice Chaput, Quality Manager Luc Frenette, and Lead Mechanic Daniel Lajoie. The team has extensive experience and specializes in the maintenance of Bell 206s, Astar350s, EC120s, and EC130s. Starting the business was a mutual sentiment to personally support clients’ aircraft that truly valued their workmanship.
