Aero Contractors Nigeria

Aero Contractors Nigeria is a long-standing aviation service provider based at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos. It operates within the mid-stream aerospace value chain, functioning as both a scheduled commercial airline and a significant provider of rotary-wing services for the Nigerian energy sector. The company is structured into distinct business units covering fixed-wing passenger operations, industrial helicopter charters, and a dedicated maintenance division. The organisation’s technical department operates a prominent Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul facility that services its own fleet and third-party customers. Key aircraft associated with their operations include the Boeing 737 Classic series and De Havilland Canada Dash 8 turboprops. The company has historically partnered with international technical firms to enhance its domestic maintenance capabilities, focusing on airframe heavy maintenance checks and line services for regional operators. Prospective partners or service buyers should verify the current operational status of specific airframes, as the fleet size fluctuates based on regulatory oversight and maintenance cycles. It is essential to confirm the scope of their Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority approvals for specific maintenance tasks. Verification of current insurance certificates and safety audit records is recommended before engaging in long-term charter or technical service agreements.
