BRISTOW — First Wave MRO Inc., the Bristow aerospace manufacturer and repair organization, is hiring 10 aircraft mechanics and managers and a half dozen contract mechanics to provide the company an aircraft components spares department, executives said.

First Wave, founded in 1992, employs 100 people at a 226,000-square-foot plant in Bristow and several locations in the Tulsa area. It also operates a 250-employee plant in Taubate, Brazil.

The new workers are being added to dismantle, refurbish (if necessary), catalog and store components from a 19-year-old Boeing 757-200 and a 20-year-old 767-300 First Wave has purchased, said CEO Ben Clark.
