AESC just received the Production Organization Approval (Part 21G) from European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) on 18th June 2018 with the Certificate Number EASA.21G.0056. With this Approval, AESC is approved to have in its production non-structural cabin interior parts, providing minor repair service, in compliance with EASA standards, to its customers not only within Vietnam, but also in the region and over the world.
1. IMPROTANT ROLE OF PARTS PRODUCTION IN AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE
Years ago, airlines in Vietnam had a lot of difficulties in conducting repair service, replacing aircraft interior parts such as armrest, arm cap, aircraft seat fairings... which are always easily damaged or broken during flight operation. OEM parts with high price, long delivery time or obsolete parts have been the contributors to the difficulties. Having the aircraft operated with damaged or broken interior parts badly affect the quality service and the image of the airlines.

Being aware of this fact, AESC started to provide a solution with products manufactured in Vietnam under the certification of Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam (CAAV) in 2010 with the Approval Certificate Number VN-001-DMO/CAAV. And with this very first step, AESC started to study and strive to go further to the regional and global level..
2. AESC MILESTONES
With the strategic vision towards global level, AESC started to put a lot of effort and investment in further studying, participating in seminars, workshops, training courses conducted in Vietnam and abroad, keeping in mind the orientation towards professionalism and the highest safety standards of EASA. The Certification Process lasted for over 4 years with appreciated support from CAAV, the Program of Partners for International Business - Dutch Aviation Vietnam (DAV), Consultants from France.
