A320, B737 & MD-80 Aircraft Teardown and Engineering

A320, B737 & MD-80 Aircraft Teardown and Engineering

At NEDAVION, aircraft teardown and engineering are executed as structured asset recovery programs, not dismantling exercises. Our teardown operations focus on A320, B737, and MD-80 aircraft, where engineering control, documentation integrity, and realistic component recovery determine long-term asset value. Aircraft teardown projects are designed to maximise recoverable value across airframe structures, landing gear, engines, APUs, and rotables while maintaining traceability and regulatory alignment.

NEDAVION specialises in the procurement and acquisition of end-of-life narrowbody aircraft for teardown execution, including platforms powered by CFM56, V2500, and JT8D-217/219 engines. Powerplant removal is performed under managed conditions, supported by BSI at removal where applicable, correct preservation, and approved engine stands. Associated APUs such as Honeywell 131-9 / 131-9A / 131-9B and APS2000 / APS3200 units are removed and assessed using conservative technical criteria to preserve downstream usability and market acceptance.

Aircraft teardowns are executed at specialised facilities or on-site locations, depending on project scope, access, and logistics constraints. Engineering oversight ensures controlled removal sequences, component protection, and documentation continuity. This approach supports predictable distribution outcomes and reduces downstream technical findings compared to uncontrolled dismantling practices.

In addition to NEDAVION-owned teardown projects, the company supports engineered teardown and asset recovery programs for third-party asset owners, including operators, lessors, banks, and insolvency administrators. Projects may include on-site aircraft recovery, component harvesting, engine and APU removal, storage coordination, and structured asset disposition planning, allowing stakeholders to unlock value from grounded or surplus aircraft efficiently.

Teardown engineering is frequently integrated with engine inspections, borescope assessments, LLP valuation, documentation reconstruction, and parts distribution planning, enabling multiple exit strategies to be evaluated from a single asset position. This allows asset owners to determine whether return-to-service, part-out, or hybrid recovery strategies provide the strongest outcome.

Through disciplined engineering execution, conservative technical assessment, and direct asset control, NEDAVION delivers aircraft teardown programs that support sustainable asset utilisation, transparent material availability, and long-term aftermarket credibility across A320, B737, and MD-80 fleets.

Full Aircraft Teardown On Site

NEDAVION executes full aircraft teardown projects directly on site, allowing asset owners to recover value without unnecessary ferry exposure, storage escalation, or logistical complexity. On-site teardown programs are structured as engineered asset recovery projects, integrating controlled removal sequencing, component preservation, and documentation continuity from the first disassembly step.

On-site teardown capability covers A320, B737, and MD-80 aircraft, including structured recovery of airframe components, landing gear assemblies, engines such as CFM56, V2500, and JT8D-217/219, and associated APUs including Honeywell 131-9 family units and APS2000 / APS3200 systems. Removal is performed under managed conditions with appropriate tooling, preservation procedures, and interface protection to maintain downstream usability and market acceptance.

On-site execution is particularly effective for aircraft positioned in constrained hangars, remote locations, or distressed operational environments where relocation is not commercially justified. By combining engineering oversight, logistics coordination, and asset disposition planning, NEDAVION enables asset owners, lessors, and administrators to unlock recoverable value while maintaining technical integrity and regulatory alignment.

Engine Removal & Powerplant Recovery

NEDAVION performs engine removal and powerplant recovery as part of structured aircraft teardown and asset recovery programs, with primary focus on A320, B737, and MD-80 aircraft. Engine removal activities cover powerplants including CFM56, V2500, and JT8D-217/219, executed under managed conditions to protect interfaces, preserve configuration integrity, and maintain downstream usability.

Engine removals are supported by BSI at removal where applicable, correct preservation procedures, and handling on approved engine stands to maintain asset condition during transport and storage. Removal sequencing is coordinated with airframe disassembly and component harvesting to ensure safe access, controlled lifting, and documentation continuity throughout the process.

Beyond engine extraction, NEDAVION integrates powerplant recovery with full asset recovery planning, including APU removal, accessory harvesting, and component disposition strategies. This allows asset owners, lessors, and administrators to evaluate multiple value paths from a single aircraft position, including reuse, repair, exchange, or part-out strategies.

By combining engineering oversight, technical discipline, and asset execution experience, NEDAVION delivers engine removal programs that support predictable technical outcomes, reduced handling risk, and defensible asset value preservation across narrowbody fleets.

Engine Borescope Inspections

NEDAVION performs engine borescope inspections as part of structured aircraft procurement, appraisal, and teardown engineering programs, supporting objective technical assessment of powerplant condition. Borescope capability covers engines including JT8D-217A / JT8D-217C / JT8D-219, V2500-A1, and CFM56-3 series, allowing internal condition to be evaluated prior to acquisition, removal, or disposition decisions.

Inspections focus on hot section condition, blade integrity, combustion hardware, foreign object impact, and wear progression, providing conservative insight into remaining usability and potential maintenance exposure. Findings are reviewed within the broader technical context of records, utilisation history, and intended asset strategy rather than isolated pass/fail interpretation.

Borescope results are frequently integrated into engine valuation, LLP assessment, teardown sequencing, and asset recovery planning, enabling informed decision-making across procurement and asset disposition workflows. This disciplined approach ensures technical observations translate into realistic commercial positioning rather than optimistic assumptions.

Engine Logistics & Preservation

NEDAVION manages engine logistics and preservation as part of controlled asset recovery and distribution programs, ensuring powerplants are protected throughout handling, transport, and storage. Logistics capability supports engines including CFM56, V2500, and JT8D-217/219, with transport executed using approved engine stands, interface protection, and preservation procedures appropriate for both air and sea freight movements.

Engine logistics planning includes stand selection based on engine type and configuration, lifting coordination, packaging integrity, environmental protection, and transport routing, reducing handling risk and preserving asset condition. Where required, logistics execution is aligned with BSI status, export compliance, and downstream inspection planning, supporting predictable acceptance upon arrival.

By integrating logistics execution directly with engineering oversight and asset management, NEDAVION ensures engine movements remain controlled from removal through final destination, supporting technical integrity, asset value preservation, and regulatory alignment across global engine transfers

Components & Avionics Recovery

NEDAVION manages component and avionics recovery as part of controlled aircraft teardown and asset recovery programs, with primary focus on A320, B737, and MD-80 platforms. Components originate from NEDAVION-owned or asset-managed aircraft, ensuring known origin, controlled removal conditions, and realistic availability rather than speculative market sourcing.

Recovered inventory includes flight deck avionics, navigation and communication units, flight control electronics, cockpit windows, safety systems, cabin systems, and selected airframe components, supplied strictly as non-engine material. Where applicable, configuration integrity, part history, and documentation continuity are reviewed prior to release to support predictable downstream acceptance.

Component recovery is integrated with teardown sequencing to minimise handling damage, preserve interfaces, and maintain traceability throughout disassembly. Material is assessed conservatively for usability, repair potential, or exchange positioning rather than optimistic classification.

All recovered components and avionics are made transparently visible through AVIONSTORE, supported by clear photographs, condition statements, and available certification, allowing buyers to evaluate suitability before commitment and reducing unnecessary technical findings.
