MRO provider Vector Aerospace recently completed its first Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) PW305A engine test at its Fleetlands heliport facility in Gosport, UK. The work, part of an effort by Vector to expand in the business and general aviation engine support market, follows the addition of both the PW305 and PW306 variants to the company’s P&WC Designated Overhaul Facility authorization for the PW300 series.

With the latest authorization, Vector can provide complete support, including global Mobile Repair Team coverage, for the PW305A/B, PW306A/C, PW307A and PW308A/C. “With our global network covering six continents, we have the ability to react swiftly to our customers’ requirements, minimizing aircraft downtime,” said, Simon Jones, vice president of business development at Vector.

In addition, Vector provides support for the PT6A turboprop, along with the JT15D, PT6T, PW100 and PW150A powerplants.
