Magnetic Trading has acquired two Airbus A320-214 aircraft from Stratton Aviation which the firm said will assist in supporting the long-term development of its trading and airframe teardown strategy.<\/p>\n
Both aircraft are currently located at Brunswick Executive Airport in the US where they are prepared for teardown.<\/p>\n
The disassembly will be performed at Stratton Aviation\u2019s MRO facility on site and is expected to take several weeks.<\/p>\n
Magnetic Trading says the project reflects continued growth in demand for used serviceable material (USM), driven by increasing flight activity, ageing global fleets, and the need for cost-effective, reliable component supply across the aviation industry.<\/p>\n
Airina Kacienaite-Krake, managing director of Magnetic Trading, said: \u201cThis acquisition reflects a strategic shift to further strengthen our trading activities. While aircraft parts trading has always been an important part of our business, this project marks a move beyond brokerage into a more advanced trading model.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy being directly involved in teardown projects, with parts repaired and sold to end customers, we gain greater control over supply and strengthen our position in the market.\u201d<\/p>\n
Magnetic Trading and Stratton Aviation have worked together previously, but this project represents a deeper level of collaboration, combining local teardown capability in the US with Magnetic Trading\u2019s global trading and distribution expertise.<\/p>\n
Christian Mejia, sales director of Magnetic Trading USA, said: \u201cI would like to thank Andrew Serrott and his team for their close collaboration in ensuring this transaction proceeded smoothly.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis marks a significant milestone for Magnetic Group<\/a> as it enables us to provide enhanced support to our customers through this airframe teardown project, driving growth across the Americas.\u201d<\/p>\n READ MORE NEWS: Magnetic MRO opens fifth hangar at Tallinn Airport<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
