Rémi Maillard, President and Managing Director, Airbus India & South Asia, said “the partnership with GMR represents a significant deepening of MRO capabilities in India that are required to match the tremendous future demand for such services from the domestic aviation industry.

The increase in air traffic is leading to fast growth in the commercial aviation fleet in the country. To cater to the emerging demand and support the industry, there is a need for skilled professionals. The GMR School of Aviation will help create a talent pool for engineering and maintenance solutions. We are glad to have Airbus as our knowledge partner in this venture, which will also further the cause of ‘Mission Skill India’”

Aspirants who passed their Higher Secondary Certificate (Class 12) test with Physics and Mathematics as their primary subjects will be eligible for the programme beginning this year.
