Bonjour !
Les pièces détachées (Certifiées) pour l'entretien des avions, sont trés côuteuses, ce n'est pas nouveau !
Des pièces détachées, peuvent être fabriquées en dehors du circuit du constructeur et être certifiées, ce sont des pièces "Non OEM"
Exemple ...
Un PB que connaît bien SNECMA GE, à travers CFMI, les prix demandés étant exorbitants, pour des pièces de relativement grandes séries!
Et ce n'a pas loupé, des pièces d'usure sont apparues, sur le marché, certifiées elles aussi ! P&W, de mémoire n'y était pas étranger !
Ceci a conduit à des coûts d'entretien en baisse, mais hors EU, surtout aux USA, créant un déséquilibre de compétitivité entre les MRO de l'UE et des USA !
Le régulateur EU, l'EASA, remets les pendules à l'heure, autorisant enfin les pièces "Non OEM" sur le territoire Européen, c'est pour la fin de l'année, et pour les pièces "Non Critical" !
Les constructeurs vont pleurer ! Et les MRO rire, du moins ceux pas trop chargés en pièces détachées !

EASA Plans Proposal for Non-OEM Parts Design and Manufacture

Provision of replacement engine parts by non-OEM sources account for more than half of a $400 million annual business. Before next year, European regulators expect to propose a rule amendment to cover the use of PMA parts.
Provision of replacement engine parts by non-OEM sources account for more than half of a $400 million annual business. Before next year, European regulators expect to propose a rule amendment to cover the use of PMA parts.
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) could, by year-end, publish proposals to clarify and simplify approval procedures covering design and production of some non-critical parts by companies other than original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Such parts manufacture approval (PMA) processes could increase competition in a market that provides North American carriers access to thousands of less-expensive replacement parts.
The EASA is considering a better balance between U.S. PMA procedures and European regulation of replacement-parts design and manufacture, comparing methods, acceptable means of compliance (AMC) and any need for rule changes. Non-OEM provision of engine parts accounts for more than 50 percent of the $400 million/year PMA business, according to aerospace consultancy AeroStrategy.
Historically, Europe has resisted use of PMA parts, but prospective cost savings stimulated an aggressive industry campaign that prompted the EASA in 2007 to recognize FAA-approved PMA parts as non-critical components. Now, PMAs could become part of the EASA approval processes.
The EASA attributes little use of existing procedures permitting European design and production of such parts to differences from U.S. practice, or misunderstanding of rules. Europe cannot simply copy the U.S. because the authorities base their respective certification systems on different principles, most notably Europe separates design from production.
