Technics Indonesia secures EASA approval for Bali hangar

BALI, Indonesia — For European airlines, the new approval opens a maintenance option in Southeast Asia. FL Technics Indonesia has received European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Part-145 certification for its facility in Bali, allowing the hangar to maintain aircraft registered in the European Union.

The approval covers base and line maintenance for Airbus A320 family aircraft, including CEO and NEO models, and Boeing 737 Classic, Next-Generation and MAX aircraft. FL Technics Indonesia said the facility was preparing to begin work for an EU-based operator by the following week, with more arrivals expected in November 2026.

The certification means the Bali site can take on work for European carriers operating under regulatory requirements overseen by EASA. The company said the approval followed technical and quality audits by EASA inspectors covering the hangar’s infrastructure, tooling systems and engineering workforce.

A practical change. European operators can now use the Bali facility for the aircraft types listed in the approval, while FL Technics Indonesia can pursue maintenance work subject to EASA standards.

What the Bali approval covers

The facility is at I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar. It spans 17,000 m² and has three hangars with three aircraft bays, as well as a 2,000 m² paint booth. The company said the site is designed to provide airframe maintenance while minimizing aircraft downtime and meeting safety standards.

Before receiving the certification, FL Technics Indonesia said it had provided maintenance solutions for aircraft registered across the Americas, Asia, Africa and Australia. The EASA approval adds the ability to work on aircraft registered in the European Union and is also relevant to operators in Asia, the Middle East and Australia seeking EASA-approved maintenance, according to Martynas Grigas, chairman of FL Technics Indonesia.

“The facility is preparing to start the work for an EU-based operator by next week, with further arrivals expected in November 2026. FL Technics Indonesia is also positioned to serve operators across Asia, the Middle East, and Australia that require EASA-approved maintenance,” Grigas said.

The certification places the Bali site among the few maintenance, repair and overhaul facilities in Indonesia with EASA approval, according to the company’s announcement. Its approved aircraft scope includes models from two widely used commercial aircraft families, but the announcement does not identify the incoming operator or specify the number of aircraft expected.

A second Indonesian maintenance base

FL Technics Indonesia also operates a hangar and office complex at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Jakarta. The company lists that site at 27.520 m² and says its operations across Jakarta and Bali are supported by more than 700 aviation experts.

FL Technics Indonesia is a subsidiary of FL Technics and a member of Avia Solutions Group. The company describes itself as an aircraft maintenance provider with a global base and line maintenance support network. The Bali approval extends the work its local facility can perform under European regulatory requirements.

The company’s next stated step is work for an EU-based operator, scheduled to start by the following week; further arrivals are expected in November 2026.
