ST Engineering Aerospace opens repair facility in Florida

Its US$46m and 173,500-sqft hangar is one of the firm's largest facilities.

ST Engineering Aerospace opened a new airframe Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul (MRO) facility in Pensacola, Florida, USA. It can carry out heavy and line maintenance, as well as aircraft modification work.

According to an announcement, it joins two others that ST Engineering has in the USA, located in San Antonio, Texas and Mobile, Alabama. It is located at the Pensacola International Airport, wherein the new hangar has been developed at a cost of US$46m.

At 173,500 sqft, it is one of the largest hangars in ST Engineering’s global network of airframe maintenance facilities. The facility has an annual capacity of 600,000 labour hours and can accommodate at any one time two aircraft of the largest version of the 777 widebody series, or six A321 narrowbody aircraft.

ST Engineering Aerospace president Lim Serh Ghee said, “Pensacola serves as an excellent base for us to serve the MRO needs of the North America region given its rich pool of highly trained engineering and aviation talent. We are pleased to have United Parcel Service as our launch customer at the new facility, and we look forward to welcoming more customers and supporting them with the same high level of quality and on-schedule redeliveries regardless of where our hangar is located, time and again.”

ST Engineering's Aerospace sector is banking on forecasts that carriers in North America will continue to lead in financial performance in 2018 and account for close to half of the industry’s total profits with a forecasted net profit of US$15b.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
