Julia Brix, Head of Technical Services, Wizz Air: “We are happy to announce the partnership with Safran Landing Systems for the overhaul of our A320F Landing Gear. Safran’s competitiveness for the offered services, its outstanding quality as the OEM for the Landing Gears as well as the commitments on reliability for our fleet were amongst the primary reasons for our decisions.”   

Since signing the contract, Safran Landing Systems has already successfully completed the MRO operations of several landing gear legs belonging to the Wizz Air company.

Safran Landing Systems has a large rotable asset pool for single-aisle aircraft that can temporarily replace the landing gear under repair. This makes it possible to offer great flexibility to customers in an environment that requires constant adaptation.

This contract also benefits from the Landing Life® customer portal, covering all Safran Landing Systems after-sales activities.
