Chapman Taylor appointed to develop design for aircraft maintenance base at Rzeszów-Jasionka Airport in Poland

Chapman Taylor is creating construction design documentation for the delivery of a new aircraft maintenance base for LOT Aircraft Maintenance Services (LOTAMS) at Rzeszów-Jasionka Airport in Poland.

The infrastructure will consist of three hangars for servicing and repairing aircraft and one dedicated hangar for painting planes. The project involves the creation of a workshop, warehouse, technical, social and office facilities. In addition to departments dedicated directly for aircraft services, LOTAMS plans to create and operate departments supporting maintenance activities, including planning, engineering, logistics, a tool shop, NDT testing, component servicing, structural workshops, electrical workshops and aesthetics.

The goal of the project is to expand LOTAMS' ability to provide base maintenance services, particularly for wide-body aircraft. LOTAMS will be able to perform simultaneous maintenance of four wide-body aircrafts such as the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, five narrow-body aircrafts such as the Boeing 737, or up to 20 regional aircrafts such as the Embraer 195. The first phase includes the construction of a 13,000m² service hangar, a pre-hangar board and a building which houses a workshop and technical, social and office facilities as well as a car park.

The hangar will be energy-efficient and will use LED technology for lighting. Additionally, to eliminate the impact of emergencies on the environment, separators and closed tanks will be used when performing maintenance processes. The technically advanced maintenance of the aircraft will reduce fuel consumption, noise levels and the leakage of operating fluids, which will significantly reduce risks to the environment.

LOTAMS is part of the Polish Aviation Group. The company's clients include the national operator LOT Polish Airlines, KLM Cityhopper, DHL, Emirates and Qatar Airways.

SAFEGE S.A.S is the Contract Engineer for the new maintenance base, while the functional concept was developed by Alton Aviation Consultancy and Ghafari Associates. Construction is set to begin in 2022, creating the most modern technical base for wide-body aircraft in the region. The first planes are to be delivered to the service in mid-2023.
