Partnership with Royal Netherlands Air Force

The Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) renews its trusts in Sabena technics by assigning the French MRO the maintenance of its fleet of KDC10 tanker aircraft for fifty-three month, extendable to sixty-five month.

As part of this agreement Sabena technics ensures the support of the fleet of two KDC10 multi-role tanker aircraft, which includes:
– Minor (A rank) and major (C rank) maintenance checks in Nîmes
– Assistance and support in Eindhoven’s airbase and in the fleet’s deployment areas.

Sabena technics has been supporting the Dutch Air Force’ fleet since 1998: “These successive renewals reflect the confidence that the RNLAF places in us and also confirm our know-how in maintaining tanker aircraft fleets in France (C-135 and KC-135 type) or in the Netherlands”, says Henri Legoff, President of Sabena technics’ Nîmes site.

Sabena technics has been approved by the Dutch military aviation authorities (MAA-NLD) under No. A -145 to 022 since October 2015.
