Following Ontic’s acquisition of Honeywell’s interior lighting products, the business made the strategic decision to sub-license all MRO activity for these products, ensuring customers benefit from dedicated, specialist repair capability.

The agreement enables Sunvair to provide comprehensive Ontic authorized MRO services, direct with customers, covering a wide range of cockpit and cabin lighting applications. These include map lights, dome lights, reading lights, and floodlights, as well as cabin systems such as emergency exit batteries, attendant work lights, passenger reading lights, window lights, and ceiling light assemblies, among others.

This support extends across a broad range of aircraft platforms, including: 737 Classic/NG/MAX, 747, 757, 767, 777 – E120, EMB 135/140, E170, E175, E190, E195 – E100, F50, F70 – C-130, E-2C, F-15, SH-60, V-22, Tucano.

Since the partnership began, Sunvair has already supported several major customers, completing more than 400 repairs with an average turnaround time of less than 14 days. This performance reflects both the strength of the collaboration and a shared commitment to delivering high-quality, responsive support to operators worldwide.

By combining Ontic’s OEM data, licensing expertise, and lifecycle support model with Sunvair’s proven MRO capabilities, the partnership ensures continued reliability and availability of critical interior lighting components for legacy and in-service aircraft platforms.

Bill Benjamin, Director of Ontic Service Centers notes: “This milestone marks an important step in Ontic’s broader strategy to provide long-term, sustainable support solutions for mature aerospace products, delivering the service, quality, and continuity customers expect.” 

Joe Greenwood, Chief Commercial Officer at Sunvair explains: “This partnership with Ontic aligns with Sunvair’s strategic expansion into deeper accessory MRO capabilities. We’re proud to be selected by Ontic, reflecting our shared commitment to quality, performance, and long-term value.”
