Estonia’s national carrier Estonian Air, based in Tallinn, has selected Liebherr-Aerospace to overhaul the main and nose landing gear systems of their Embraer E-Jet E1 fleet.

We are delighted with the confidence placed in us by Estonian Air, the biggest operator at Tallinn airport with a strong presence in the Baltic region,” commented Sven Dicke, Director of Customer Services at Liebherr-Aerospace Lindenberg GmbH.
