FAI Technik has been active in the Nigerian market for over a year, primarily supporting aircraft-on-ground (AOG) through collaborations with local Part-145 maintenance organisations.

With this NCAA approval, the company can now release Nigerian-registered aircraft under the FAI Technik brand. Services will be offered at their facilities in Nuremberg (NUE) and Berlin Brandenburg (BER) airports and in Lagos and Abuja, Nigeria, with larger maintenance projects likely to be conducted in Nuremberg.

Michael Axtmann, Managing Director of FAI Technik, expressed enthusiasm for the certification: “We are pleased to receive this latest important approval from the Nigerian CAA.

FAI Technik is experiencing strong demand for maintenance support in Nigeria and Africa. We look forward to continuing to build strong relationships in Nigeria and growing our customer base. We remain committed to expanding our presence in this market.”

This strategic move is set to enhance FAI Technik’s footprint in the Nigerian and African aviation markets, positioning the company as a reliable partner for business aircraft maintenance needs.
