As we continue to localise maintenance services, we are contributing to the UAE’s efforts to become self-sufficient, equipping our organisation with a strong engineering talent pool, and expanding the boundaries of what is possible at the HORIZON Academy.' Speaking on the signing, Al Dhaheri said: “HORIZON is thrilled to be partnering with Parker Lord, who is furthering our goals to build autonomy within our facilities and entrusting our engineers to carry out these additional overhaul solutions in-house. Previously, all main rotor hubs were sent to OEM authorised services outside the UAE. HORIZON currently has the engineering expertise, tooling and infrastructure to undertake this new in-house capability.

Through the agreement, Parker Lord will deliver training to HORIZON engineers, enabling HORIZON to expand its capabilities to carrying out B407 main rotor hub overhauls at HORIZON facilities.
