Gallery: A Look At Atitech's Naples MRO Facility

Atitech now operates five facilities in Naples for narrowbody and widebody operations, with one aircraft painting hangar.

The Naples site has a volume of 20 maintenance bays across five hangars, with 2.1 million ft.² of total surface space.

Atitech offers base maintenance on Airbus A330, A320CEO and NEO, ATR 42-72, Boeing 737Cl-NG and 767, ERJ 175/190 and MD80.

The MRO operates aircraft storage services in Naples, which it notes continued demand for even as the industry moves out of the COVID-19 crisis. Total space is estimated at around 1.5 million ft.² and can accommodate up to 15 aircraft.

The company also has a composite repair skill offering including thrust reverser, flight controls, flap, slat, fairing, rudder and elevator.

Cabin repair services carried out on-site include VIP cabin refurbishment, IFE modification, seat changes, connectivity modification and gallery, closet or lavatory refurbishment - among other services.

Atitech operates a training facility that administers learning for its mechanics to gain EASA-approved certifications. Atitech runs a training operation at its Naples site where it undertakes Part-147 registered training courses. Capabilities include training and practical elements for Boeing 737-300/400/500 aircraft; practical learning for Airbus A318/A319/A320/A321 aircraft (CFM56 variants) and practical learning for ATR 42-400/500/72-212A aircraft.

In summer 2021, Atitech partnered with Israel Aerospace Industries on a passenger-to-freighter conversion site for Boeing 737-700 and -800 aircraft. The Italian company's role in the partnership includes aircraft maintenance and renovation services and converting passenger aircraft to cargo configuration.

Since late 2021, Atitech has sought to acquire the maintenance assets of defunct airline Alitalia. When completed this summer, the agreement would see Atitech take over the former airline's Rome maintenance base.

Atitech signed a preliminary maintenance agreement to provide services for newly established, Italian government-backed flag carrier ITA Airways. ITA Airways took over the former assets of Alitalia, but Atitech purchased the maintenance division.
