LAS MRO

Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) providers play a critical role in aviation by ensuring that aircraft remain operational and safe. These services, which include cabin retrofits, fuel efficiency upgrades, and system installations, enhance both comfort and performance. However, the core focus remains on safety—particularly for aging aircraft, which require specialized attention to maintain reliability and performance over time.

LAS MRO is dedicated to prioritizing safety through rigorous processes, strict adherence to industry standards, and a forward-thinking approach to innovation. With over 15 years of experience in the MRO field, the company has become a trusted partner for clients by delivering exceptional service, reliability, and expertise.

Commitment to Safety and On-Time Delivery

“At LAS MRO, we understand that our clients’ aircraft are not just machines—they are valuable assets,” says Breno Lemos, managing partner. “Our mission is to keep them flying safely, especially older models that often require more than routine maintenance.” The company focuses on addressing safety issues while ensuring that costs remain reasonable and downtime is minimized.

LAS MRO primarily serves private aircraft owners (Part 91), commercial operators (Part 135), and larger fleet operators (Part 121). Its services include routine inspections, avionics upgrades, and emergency Aircraft on Ground (AOG) support. While all services are important, LAS MRO’s AOG response stands out. A key challenge for most clients is the unpredictability of how long their aircraft will remain out of service. To address this, LAS MRO maintains clear communication and provides accurate estimates, ensuring that clients are never surprised by delays. The company works hard to meet time commitments and minimize aircraft downtime.

AOG services are a major part of LAS MRO’s success. For instance, when a client’s aircraft was grounded in South America, the team flew in with the necessary parts and restored the aircraft to service within 48 hours—far quicker than competitors, who estimated weeks of downtime. LAS MRO’s ability to swiftly address AOG situations is supported by its company-owned Cessna 172, which allows technicians to fly to remote locations with the required parts, saving valuable time.

Skilled Team and Future Plans

LAS MRO’s success is also attributed to the expertise of its skilled workforce. With a mix of experienced professionals and newer technicians, the company maintains a culture of education and trust. Team members are continually trained, learning from seasoned experts to ensure they consistently deliver on the company’s promises. LAS MRO places a strong emphasis on trust, ensuring that clients know exactly what to expect, especially in high-stakes situations like AOGs.

LAS MRO operates from a 12,000-square-foot hangar, which has significantly increased its capacity for larger aircraft and more detailed projects. The company’s expanded facilities allow it to handle a greater variety of maintenance needs, including cabin comfort upgrades and avionics installations, such as in-flight Wi-Fi systems.

The company is committed to expanding its services even further and plans to continue growing its capacity, training, and tooling to meet the evolving needs of the industry. It aims to offer competitive pricing while maintaining a high level of quality in both routine inspections and specialized services.

In addition to providing industry-leading maintenance, LAS MRO has made safety a core focus beyond just aircraft repairs. Lemos, the company’s owner, wrote a book titled May the Loss of Lift Gravity Always Wins, which emphasizes the importance of safety in aviation. The book discusses the consequences of poor maintenance and highlights the company’s commitment to educating both consumers and future technicians. “We want to help develop the next generation of aviation professionals,” Lemos concludes.
