WOOD DALE, Ill., /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- AAR (NYSE: AIR) announced today that it has signed a two-year agreement with Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. to provide maintenance, repair and overhaul services for the airline's Boeing 717 aircraft.

AAR will perform 10-year checks on 12 of Hawaiian's Boeing 717s and paint certain aircraft before they are returned to service. The aircraft will be flown from Hawaiian's base in Honolulu to AAR Aircraft Services - Miami, AAR's full-service maintenance and modifications facility located at Miami International Airport, where the work will be performed.

"We look forward to leveraging our experience with the 717 airframe to provide highly efficient maintenance services that minimize downtime and maximize the availability of Hawaiian's aircraft."

With heavy maintenance facilities located throughout the United States, AAR is the second largest independent MRO provider in North America and ranks among the top ten in the world.

Founded in 1929, Hawaiian Airlines carries 8 million passengers a year to 19 domestic and international destinations in the Pacific region.
