THE HANGAR
Engineered For Today, Ready For Tomorrow

The hangar features India’s widest 235‑meter column‑free clear span, enclosed by a mega ‑ span sliding hangar door system – the largest of its kind in the nation.
The hangar floor is engineered for full‑fuel Code‑E static loads, aircraft jacking, and high‑cycle GSE/tow‑tractor operations, supported by 16 in‑floor MUP pits delivering 400 Hz power, 28.5 VDC, pre‑conditioned air (PCA), compressed air, and water for on‑bay aircraft maintenance.

THE ANNEX
Where Craftsmanship Meets Technology
Spanning nearly 73,600 sqm, the Annex building is a vertical engine of productivity. Its advanced workshops include:

• Powerplant & Engine Build‑Up
• Landing Gear
• Composite & Sheet Metal
• NDT
• Electrical & Avionics
• GSE & Tooling
• Dedicated Cabin Interiors

Complementing these are automated logistics systems such as ASRS, controlled‑access tool cribs, spares warehousing, and kitting rooms, enabling streamlined preparation and faster aircraft turnaround.

THE COMMAND CENTER
Intelligence At The Core
A modern Command Center unifies aircraft movement, manpower, tooling, and safety oversight into one real‑time command environment.
This is the operational brain of the MRO – orchestrating precision at every moment.
