Air Nostrum Engineering and Maintenance (ANEM), based in Valencia, Spain, has entered into a new long-term power-by-the-hour (PBH) component support agreement with Fokker Services Group (FSG), covering Air Nostrum’s growing fleet of currently 30 Mitsubishi CRJ NG aircraft.
This new agreement builds on the existing support framework and further intensifies the long-standing partnership between the parties through a broader and more comprehensive service scope.
The nose-to-tail, full-service agreement will be delivered under FSG’s proven ABACUS Program and is tailored to Air Nostrum’s operational requirements. ABACUS combines component maintenance services, inventory support and leasing, guaranteed availability, and 24/7 operational support to enhance fleet reliability while providing predictable, flight hour-based cost control for day-to-day operations.
Through this partnership, FSG and ANEM aim to further strengthen operational performance and long-term planning stability for the CRJ fleet, ensuring continued service reliability and sustainable value for Air Nostrum’s operations.
Fermin Tirado, Managing Director of ANEM, said: “ANEM is pleased to have signed the renewed ABACUS agreement with FSG. We already had a very positive experience working with FSG in the past and feel they are the right regional aircraft service partner supporting our current and future CRK operations. The nature of our business mandates efficiency, flexibility and reliability. Therefore, we see great value in the FSG’s ABACUS program and know that their support will help us to provide the highest level of dispatch reliability to serve our customers.”
Dirk Hanenberg, Managing Director of Fokker Services Group, added: “We are proud that a leading CRJ operator like Air Nostrum has once again selected FSG to support its entire fleet. Our long-standing partnership with Air Nostrum is built on close collaboration and a shared commitment to continuously strengthening the program. With decades of experience in regional aircraft support, we understand the importance of ensuring component availability at the right time, place and configuration, while continuously enhancing reliability and cost control. We look forward to further developing this cooperation and supporting ANEM’s ongoing fleet optimisation and business growth.”
