EASA Part 145 Approved Repair Station

What Is EASA Part 145 Approval?

EASA Part 145 is the maintenance-organization approval issued under the European Union Aviation Safety Agency framework. A repair station based outside the EU — like QTC in the United States — can hold EASA Part 145 approval as a third-country maintenance organization. That approval allows it to maintain and release components for aircraft on EU member-state registers and for EU operators, under EASA's audited requirements for personnel, procedures, and quality.

QTC's EASA Approval

Qualified Technologies Corporation holds EASA Part 145 approval EASA.145.5940, covering the environmental control system (ECS) component families we repair and overhaul. A copy of our EASA approval certificate is available on request.

FAA and EASA — Both Approvals, One Repair Station

Holding both FAA Part 145 and EASA Part 145 approvals means QTC can support operators and MROs on both sides of the Atlantic from a single source — reducing the vendor-qualification burden for fleets that span registers. Our work is backed by our quality management system.

How is EASA Part 145 different from FAA Part 145?
