Setna iO has completed the purchase of one (1) A319-100 airframe, previously operated by easyJet, as part of its ongoing effort to further expand its teardown pipeline. The aircraft is one of three ex-easyJet A319-100 airframes acquired in the transaction.
The aircraft will be disassembled at ecube in St. Athan, Wales. Components will be routed through SETNA’s repair network, including Setnix, SETNA Parts Lab, Landing Gear Technologies (LGT), and Zulu Global, for piece-part repair and recertification.
“This A319 airframe acquisition is an exciting addition to our portfolio,” said Vinnie Beltrano, Partner & Chief Operating Officer. “The high-demand parts will help generate valuable feedstock of metal, which underpins our long-term piece-part repairs and sales strategy. SETNA is uniquely positioned to repair a large portion of these components via our in-house MRO network, while leveraging our global sales team at Setna iO to deliver parts to airlines, lessors, and MROs on time. This vertical integration strengthens our control over the supply chain, shortens turnaround times, improves material availability, and allows us to price as competitively as possible.”
