AAR adds three heavy maintenance lines with Miami MRO expansion. AAR Corp. has opened an expanded airframe MRO facility at Miami International Airport, adding more than 100,000 ft^2 of capacity and creating 200 full-time jobs. The aviation aftermarket specialist marked the expansion with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Tuesday, August 17. Built to support the maintenance requirements of a long-term commercial airline customer, the new facility will accommodate three heavy maintenance lines, with the first aircraft expected to be inducted this autumn.
