Monarch Aircraft Engineering
I hear Monarch Engineering are making redundancies up at Manchester again Not sure if it’s the Base operation or ramp Brum is ok i hear Only the Manchester effected Half the workforce going this time . |
MAEL No longer have a base at MAN, They closed that facility and made a lot of good people redundant a couple of years back This latest redundancy affects the line operation with around half the staff being terminated soon Good luck to all involved , At least the job market is buoyant and if MAEL don’t want you plenty of others will i’m sure Monarch engineers have a good reputation in the industry and that always helps |
What Base operation?
They only have a line station at Manchester. |
Another great shame, but hopefully those looking to leave will be able to, keeping those who want to stay safe.
I'd imagine everyone at Manchester will have both Q400 and Embraer type ratings so shouldn't have any bother finding good paying work! It might not be at home but it keeps your roof over your head! |

My mistake as said they closed the base some time ago those staff being cut are from the line which i believe looks after the flybe operation some twenty staff being dismissed in total they could use them here i’m sure as we are constantly being told by them there very short of manpower and cannot recruit staff |
Worst decision MAEL ever made closing the MAN facility ,They lost a lot of experienced and well qualified staff who they had hoped would move down to the white elephant that is the BHX hangar which they never did , Many instead not surprisingly took their payout and walked across the road to The Thomas Cook base and took up employment there . They have never been able to attract qualified staff to the BHX Base in any numbers which has of course has led to the inevitable consequences that being the late delivery of aircraft and unhappy customers Having the reputation of being a hire and fire outfit is not a good one to have in this day of critical shortages of qualified engineers and mechanics |
shame they appear to have lost the plot monarch engineering were in the past always very well regarded maybe they will be took over by one of the big boys such as sr techniks who will put in the investment they need |
As SRT have ceased trading in the UK don't think that will happen. Good luck to the lads at MAN some of which I will possibly know.

I wish all the MAN MAEL staff all the best with whatever happens to them as I have worked with a few of them. |
It's historic and they may have returned but part of my pension was SRT and it was scuppered when they ceased trading, closing STN MAN and LGW they continued in DUB. For years I went to pension protection levels while the trustees sorted something out. It's not good now but better than it was.
It is on this that I base my knowledge. |
