The article Putting the Spotlight on MRO by Jen Boyer promotes the Vertical MRO Conference 2025.
Vertical MRO Conference 2025
Quote: Helicopter maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) is the backbone of the rotorcraft industry. Without educated, informed, skilled, and fully staffed MRO teams, helicopter operations simply could not exist.
So why has there never been a professional development conference focused entirely on rotorcraft MRO before today?
The Vertical MRO Conference 2025 is the first conference entirely dedicated to MRO in the rotorcraft industry.
Vertical MRO Conference 2025
The Conference takes place in two separate locations, Kelowna, British Columbia, from Oct. 7-9, and Irving, Texas, from Nov. 10-12, 2025, and offers different programmes at each.
Both events feature educational sessions and panel discussions on the latest best practices, OEM maintenance information, lessons learned, and industry insights.2
