Wales is a major centre for Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO); 20% of the UK’s activity is managed here, and the country punches well above its weight, despite having just 5% of the UK’s population. The MRO sector continues to grow in Wales, along with the expertise of its workforce, we currently have nearly 50 MRO companies based in Wales. GE Aviation is the world MRO base for the GE90 engine, used in the twin-engine wide- body Boeing 777, one of the most powerful engines certified for civil aircraft. In addition, GE handles the GP7000, which was developed by The Engine Alliance, a joint venture between GE and Pratt & Whitney. This powers the Airbus A380 and the CFM56 family of engines – developed by CFM, which is the world’s most popular aircraft engine. The business occupies a workshop space of

1 million square feet and its customer base covers 90+ operators, from all around the world. The Bro Tathan Enterprise Zone, which can trace its aviation history back to 1938, continues to be a major centre for Aerospace and Defence. It currently has several tenants, workshops and hangars, along with a newly surfaced runway. Civilian and military projects work side by side, with works including MRO, non-destructive testing and full-scale manufacturing. Based here are British Airways Engineering, eCube Solutions, (specialising in end-of life aircraft projects) and Caerdav, a fully-approved and certified aviation maintenance, engineering, and technical service group. The current Airbus Broughton site was founded in 1939, as a shadow factory for the production of the Vickers Wellington and the Avro Lancaster. After the
