As the aerospace industry gathered for two of its biggest annual events, Moeller Aerospace and our innovative Click-Loc Technology took center stage. The LOA 2024 Symposium and MRO Americas provided the perfect platforms to showcase how Click-Loc is transforming aircraft maintenance and driving increased safety and efficiency.
LOA 2024 Symposium (3/26-3/29)
The hallways were buzzing with excitement at this year’s LOA Symposium as Moeller Aerospace unveiled a cutting-edge display. Front and center was a section of a real aircraft engine case with Click-Loc Borescope Plugs installed – giving attendees a tangible look at the technology in action. This hands-on experience generated tremendous engagement as visitors could physically walk up and install a Click-Loc plug themselves, better understanding the benefits over cumbersome traditional safety wiring.
The buzz amplified with our Click-Loc Challenge competition. Dozens of participants put their skills to the test, racing against the clock to quickly install both traditional hardware with safety wire and Click-Loc components. The competition was fierce and provided the opportunity to experience first-hand the difference in standard hardware versus the ease of use of Click-Loc Self-Locking Technology. Congratulations to the top finishers, who were awarded a Click-Loc prize pack that included a Carhartt Tool Bag, Leatherman Multi-Tool, Towel, and other Click-Loc swag!

With attendance ranging from logistic operators to senior leadership, it was an incredible opportunity to drive awareness for Click-Loc’s role in enhancing aircraft safety and readiness across defense operations.
MRO Americas (4/9-4/11)
The momentum only grew at MRO Americas in Atlanta. Once again, our exhibit put Click-Loc in the spotlight with a head-to-head demo against traditional hardware and safety wiring. Attendees couldn’t get enough, lining up to install both Click-Loc and standard components to experience the night-and-day difference firsthand. The ease and efficiency of our solution was on full display.
Moeller Aerospace also hosted an event in the Aviation Maintenance Competition, which achieved record-breaking participation with 90 teams competing. As part of our support, Click-Loc awarded prizes to the elite professional and student winners:
Professional Winner: United Airlines – Base
Student Winner: George T. Baker Aviation Technical College
MRO by the numbers showcased an incredible global presence:
- 17,000+ attendees
- 979 exhibitors
- 99 countries & 50 U.S. states represented
- Over 1,800 airline representatives
As the dust settles on these major events, one thing is clear – awareness and enthusiasm for Click-Loc technology is soaring. Aircraft mechanics, airlines, and militaries are all taking notice of the game-changing potential in streamlining maintenance operations while enhancing safety.
The buzz around Click-Loc will only grow louder as we prepare for MRO Americas 2025 in Atlanta next April 8-10. Stay tuned by checking Aviation Week’s website for updates! If you’d like to see what MRO is all about, check out the 2024 recap video here on YouTube!
