Lufthansa Technik, an aircraft maintenance and repair company and subsidiary of German aviation group Lufthansa, is to open a new engine repair station in Dublin as part of a multi-million euro investment. The German company, which had record sales of €6.9bn last year, plans on opening the new facility in early October. The Mobile Engine Services site will have five repair bays covering 600 square metres of floor space and will also offer repair services at the locations of its customers. Wolfgang Reinert, head of external communications for Lufthansa Technik, told the Sunday Independent the new facility represented a "medium single-digit million sum" investment. Lufthansa Technik had an engine overhaul plant in Rathcoole, Co Dublin.
