Embraer has signed a new maintenance contract with regional airline CommuteAir for its recently established Commercial Aviation facility at Perot Field Alliance Airport in Fort Worth, Texas. The agreement covers maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services for CommuteAir’s fleet of Embraer aircraft.
“CommuteAir is pleased to strengthen its partnership with Embraer by commencing heavy airframe maintenance at its new facility in Fort Worth,” said Lon Ziegler, CommuteAir’s Vice President of Technical Operations. “By working with our aircraft OEM, we will support our goals of ensuring the highest reliability for our ERJ145 fleet.”
“This contract with CommuteAir is an important milestone for Embraer. We will provide best-in-class support for CommuteAir and reduce downtime. We have a long-term relationship with CommuteAir, and today we are starting a new chapter with this new facility. We are excited to welcome CommuteAir here at the Perot Field Alliance Airport,” said Frank Stevens, Vice President MRO Services, Embraer Services & Support.
Embraer began operations at the Fort Worth site this week, using an existing hangar while a second hangar is under construction. The new facility, developed in collaboration with the City of Fort Worth and the State of Texas, is expected to be completed in 2027. Once fully operational, Embraer anticipates a 53% increase in its overall MRO capacity across the United States.
