Spirit now directly selling, distributing parts to global aftermarket customers
Spirit announced Dec. 21, 2009, that it has begun to directly sell and distribute international parts, as it has been doing with the domestic market since 2005. In a news release, Spirit said it is responding to customers’ desire to deal directly with Spirit. Spirit’s sales and distribution network has developed and matured since its separation from Boeing in 2005 and the company is now fully capable of engaging directly with international customers.
“We believe it is the right time to strengthen relationships with our international customers by responding directly to their spare parts requirements.” Said Carolyn Harms, Spirit vice president and general manager – Aftermarket Customer Support.
We look forward to offering our international customers the same long term service, low cost parts, Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO), and product support solutions we currently offer our domestic customers,” Harms said.
Spirit has a comprehensive plan for customer engagement and intends to establish regional centers around the world to be closer to their markets.
This network, together with Spirit’s MRO locations in Wichita, Kan., Prestwick, Scotland, and the joint venture in Jinjiang, China, positions Spirit in close proximity to its worldwide customer base, allowing Spirit to respond quickly and effectively to engaging customer needs.
The transition from Spirit’s current international distributor begins immediately and is projected to be complete by June 30, 2010. No service interruption is expected.

What we do in MRO Spirit MRO continues to expand, not just in services provided but also in proximity to customers. We have three sites on three continents, and we continue to develop new services to meet customer needs.
The Wichita repair station has provided nacelle repair support for several years. Now the station’s capabilities include fuselage doors, structural components, and modification kits, as well as repair of composite contoured components, flight-control devices for service bulletin compliance, and under-wing components for domestic and international customers.
The Prestwick, Scotland, repair station opened in September 2008. This MRO facility performs composite repairs and overhauls for customers in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, currently focusing on engine nacelles and components for Boeing 737NG and 777 aircraft.
In April 2008, Spirit announced a joint venture with Hong Kong Aircraft Engineering Company Limited (HAECO) and other industry partners to establish a state-of-the-art composite and metal bond component repair station in the Asia-Pacific region. Taikoo Spirit, located in Jinjiang, China opened its doors for business in November 2009. In addition to its repair station certifications, Spirit became a part of the Boeing Partners Network of Repair Stations in 2007.
Nacelle expertise is not limited to new production. It also encompasses repair capability. Spirit AeroSystems has the experience and resources to provide repairs on many types of airplane engine nacelles.
