The AERO as the most important exhibition for General Aviation in Europe combines air sport like gliders and microlights, classic light planes like Cessna and co. as well as business aviation and helicopter operations. And as different as the sectors may be, what they all have in common is that they cannot take off without professional maintenance.

The aerokurier Maintenance Area brings some of the work that usually takes place behind hangar doors onto the stage in order to shine a spotlight on it. Whether converting from avgas to jet fuel engines, maintenance on turboprop engines, tips on tuning and ergonomics or presentations on the legal framework for aviation maintenance - renowned experts will be giving talks on stage and providing insights into the world of maintenance, repair and overhaul
