The Dutch flag carrier airline’s subsidiary, KLM Cityhopper has awarded the global manufacturer, Liebherr Aerospace contract to work on the overhaul of the landing gear system for seventeen of the 30 Embraer E 190 aircraft.
The first overhaul is to be performed at Liebherr-Aerospace’s facility in Lindenberg (Germany) in September 2017. The manufacturer produces the landing gear system for the first generation of the Embraer E-Jet Family.

Hans Werner, VP Technical Services & Fleet Development at KLM Cityhopper explained: “Liebherr was the best choice with regards to overall costs, experience, quality and reliable turn-around time; also the professionalism of Liebherr made a very good impression on us. Moreover, Liebherr is one of the very few parties being able to provide us, in addition to a spare landing gear ship set throughout the landing gear program, with replacement landing gears in case of unforeseen events. We are therefore confident that Liebherr will be able to support our nose-to-tail Embraer E190 landing gear overhaul program in the best manner possible.”
