INDEPENDENT EXPERTS IN MAINTENANCE, REPAIR & OVERHAUL

Caerdav home welcome

Welcome to Caerdav

Excellence Delivered

Based in St. Athan, South Wales, Caerdav strives to be the best provider of aircraft maintenance as one of the UK’s only truly independent, fully approved and certified MRO organisations.

Started by our Chairman, Bruce Dickinson – passionate and avid aviator and lead singer of Iron Maiden – we operate from a former RAF maintenance base, equipped with a 6,000ft ILS runway and parking for up to 20 narrow-bodied aircraft.

Our modern MRO facility – Twin Peaks – houses a team of highly-skilled technicians and engineers, all certified to carry out base maintenance work on a variety of aircraft, including Boeing 737 and the Airbus A320 family.

We also offer comprehensive aircraft modifications, engine changes, tool hire, parking and storage options, alongside a full aviation consultancy service to a wide range of global customers.


Our core services

"What keeps us coming back is Caerdav’s quality, consistency and flexibility, with a skilled team that is able to shift focus when required – nothing is too much to ask."
Juergen Jerome, Outsourced Maintenance Manager, TUI Airline
"Caerdav has an excellent reputation for a quality service offering in the industry. Our initial deal was to utilise two heavy maintenance slots, with aircraft coming in nose to tail through the winter. This agreement ensures Ryanair has flexibility as to where it places its aircraft for the winter maintenance season."
Neal McMahon, Director of Operations, Ryanair
"We need flexible partners for our end-of-lease checks, as inspections can reveal additional essential maintenance requirements. Caerdav has proved its ability to deliver on time, on budget, and adapt to our changing needs rapidly and effectively."
Ian Boaler, Head of Fleet Transition, easyJet
"GE Aviation is honoured to provide MRO services and material to support flyadeal’s growth in the Middle East. Our agreement with Caerdav will help us provide a high-quality OEM service to keep flyadeal’s CFM56-5B engine fleet flying."
Russell Stokes, President and CEO, GE Aviation Services
"It is fantastic to see an ambitious and progressive organisation like Caerdav committing to The ELMS Solution - this investment in its future will help to support its exciting business plans."
John Scale, General Manager, ELMS
"Caerdav delivered exactly what we needed – clear communication, aviation expertise, and results we could trust. They are a valuable partner we’re happy to recommend to the industry."
Michal Fojtů, Head of Continuing Airworthiness Department, AirExplore
"We’ve been impressed with the approach from the entire team at Caerdav, who completed some complex engine changes on our aircraft both ultra-efficiently and cost-effectively. The facility at St. Athan is second to none and we’re looking forwards to seeing the relationship between the two company’s continue to thrive."
Goran Stimac, Director of Engineering and Maintenance, Trade Air
