NEW YORK (Reuters) - StandardAero, a U.S. aircraft maintenance services provider, priced its U.S. initial public offering above its indicated range to raise $1.44 billion, people familiar with the matter said on Tuesday.

Scottsdale, Arizona-based StandardAero, which is backed by buyout firm Carlyle, priced its offering at $24 apiece, above its range of $20 to $23, the sources said, requesting anonymity as the discussions are confidential.

The company and some of its existing shareholders sold 60 million shares to raise $1.44 billion, the sources said, making it the biggest U.S. IPO since cold-storage warehouse operator Lineage raised $4.45 billion in June.

The IPO values StandardAero at roughly $8 billion, based on about 334.5 million outstanding shares.

StandardAero, which upsized its IPO last week, and Carlyle did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
