AJW CUSTOMER ACCOUNT
Existing AJW customers can benefit from a secure online account, giving instant access to the real-time information you need, when you need it most.
We recognise that there will be occasions where the possibility of exchanging an engine makes more commercial sense for both parties as an alternative to a shop visit.
Our engine specialists are able to provide engine exchanges at a known cost as an alternative to placing your engine for repair at an MRO facility.
This upfront cost will include a stated performance margin for the exchanged engine and avoid downtime when your engine is in the repair shop.
It will also dispense with the likely need for a lease engine during this period and so offers a cost-effective solution all round.

There are a number of gains to our engine exchanges solution. By utilising our exchange service you will benefit from:
