Lo-Co Aircraft Maintenance
Who actually carries out the Light and Heavy Maintenance for the major Lo-Co airlines, for example :-
Ryanair
Easyjet
Jet2
Globespan
Flybe
etc etc
I assume that most of these carriers sub-contract their maintenance to third party maintenance companies, I would be very interested to learn where this maintenance is actually carried out.

Ryanair do their own, Easyjet use either Easytech or SR Technics, Jet 2 do their own, Globespan don't usually bother with maintenance, but when they have to, they use Storm and Flybe do their own also.

Lo-Co Aircraft Maintenance
Thank you for your reply's so far.
I am not a journalist, my father was a Licensed Aircraft Engineer for 40 years and I have an interest in Commercial Aviation.
I thought it would be interesting to find out what approach the various Lo-Co carriers had taken to maintenance requirements.

Like every other department in any low cost airline, anywhere they can save a buck.
