Maintenance: Americas NOTES ON TABLES The Flight International Maintenance Directory Part 1 covers companies in the Americas. It is an update of the information published in the issue of 29 Januarys February 2002. Part 2, covering Africa, Asia, Australasia and the Pacific Rim, and Part 3, covering Europe and the CIS, will be published on 29 April-5 May and 7-13 October, respectively. The tables are arranged in alphabetical order, by company within country. They indicate the level of maintenance capability offered to air lines or to operators of other manufacturers' engines or aircraft. A few companies which maintain aircraft and engines may not appear, since they do not meet the criteria of serving third parties or of handling aircraft (or engines) weighing over 5,700kg (12,5001b). Companies specialising in components rather than whole airframes or engines are excluded, as are those providing only A checks or line maintenance. Companies not included in this year's census may contact our on-line sister service Air Transport Intelligence to review criteria by emailing atidata@rati.com DATA COMPILED BY TREVOR MOUNTFORD, ATI AD airworthiness directive; AOG aircraft on ground; APU auxiliary power unit; CPCP corro sion prevention and control programme; FBO fixed based operator; GE General Electric; GPS global positioning system; HSI hot section inspection MDC McDonnell Douglas; NDT non destructive testing; P&W Pratt & Whitney; P&WC Pratt & Whitney Canada; QEC quick engine change; R-R Rolls-Royce; SB service bulletin; STC supplemental type certificate; TCAS traffic collision and avoidance alert system ARGENTINA CATA SACIFI Casilla de Correo No 34 (1712), Castelar, Aeropuerto de Moron, Buenos Aires, 1712, Argentina Tel+54 (11) 4629 7888 Fax+54 (11) 4627 3721 e-mail cata@satlink.com Speciality airframes, engines Checks B, C, D Approvals FAA Total employees 50 Engineers 3 Principal types serviced Agusta A109C, Boeing 707, Bombardier Dash 8-100, Learjet31A, CASAC212, Cessna 421,425,500 Citation, Fairchild FH-227, Fokker F27, F28, Gulfstream II, IAI Arava 102, Mitsubishi Mu-2, Piper PA-32, Raytheon King Air 100 Additional services Modifications, interiors, paintshop Widebody spaces 1 Narrowbody spaces 1 Commuter spaces 5 Engines Honeywell TFE7312, TPE331, P&WC PT6, PT6T-3, R-R 250, Dart Lockheed Martin Aircraft Argentina Av Fuerza Aerea Argentina 5500, Cordoba, 5010, Argentina Tel +54 (351) 466 8733 Fax +54 (351) 466 8734 e-mail busdev@lmaasa.com KEY TO LISTINGS Engineers - numbers of licensed airframe/engine/avionics engineers.
