MRO Europe was a fantastic event for Patria. The Netherlands Aerospace Group did an excellent job organizing and setting up the booth, providing a strong platform for Dutch companies to connect with key players in the aviation industry.

Jan Terlingen – NLR
The MRO Europe has been a blast this year with great in-depth conversations about opportunities in inspection automation and high-quality leads. Together with all the strong Dutch partners on the NAG pavilion, we’ve showcased the strength and innovative capabilities of the MRO sector in the Netherlands. The NLR V-ARBI showcase was a perfect example of that.

Mila ter Mors – Mainblades
Attending MRO Europe in Barcelona was an incredible experience for Mainblades. It provided us with the opportunity to engage with industry leaders, showcase our automated drone inspection technology, and explore the latest trends in aviation maintenance. We were particularly proud to share our groundbreaking achievement of becoming the first company in the world to gain FAA acceptance for camera-based systems for General Visual Inspections (GVI), with our partner Delta Airlines. Industry leaders were amazed by this milestone, recognizing that it revolutionises aircraft maintenance standards. We’re excited about the future and the possibilities this brings for the aviation sector.

Niels Kloostra – WFSPRO
Continuing our successful cooperation with the NAG for enhancing our footprint in the Aerospace MRO sector.
