StandardAero’s Kenyan service center facility at Wilson Airport (IATA: WIL, ICAO: HKNW) in Nairobi last week held a customer appreciation event to thank all of our loyal customers whose Pratt & Whitney Canada #PT6A and #PW100 engine fleets we support. Our Nairobi facility is a P&WC authorized service center for the PT6A and PW100, offering a range of services including hot section inspection (HSI), repairs and parts distribution, in addition to rental engine logistics and field service. Our local team supports not only the 400+ PT6A/PW100 engines in operation in Kenya, but also the hundreds of additional engines supported elsewhere across East, Central and North Africa. In addition to being joined by PT6A/PW100 operators and owners from across the region, facility manager Muzamil Khokher and the Nairobi team also hosted Jason Gallant (GM Lanseria, South Africa), Glenn Hawley (Service Center Network), Adam MacArthur VP Sales) and Mark O'Keefe (VP Business Development) for this special event. Thank you to all of our valued customers who joined us for this memorable occasion! #pt6a #pw100 #kenyaaviation
