On Wednesday 8 March, the EPFL Alumni Association Eastern Switzerland visited the aircraft maintenance hangars of the company SR Technics at Zurich airport for the second time this year. We were able to see how aircraft components such as landing gear tyres and engines are dismantled, repaired, tested and certified. The visit ended in the large hangars where part of the maintenance of the Swiss airline's Airbus A220 (ex Bombardier C-Series) and Boeing 777 aircraft is carried out.

On behalf of the committee, we would like to thank Damien Nguyen for organising this event and to Cédric Meichtry for handling the event on the ground the day of the event.
