BCT Aviation Maintenance has secured a number of maintenance contracts for Boeing 777F cargo aircraft at its East Midlands Airport (EMA/EGNX) facility.
Chinese cargo carrier Central Airlines has appointed BCT to carry out line maintanance for the two Boeing 777F aircraft that it is operating into East Midlands on behalf of logistics firm Yun Express for two flights per week.
In addition, African carrier Ethiopian Cargo and Logistics Services has also appointed BCT to carry out line maintenance on the Boeing 777F it operates weekly between East Midlands and China.
Both operations have plans to increase their frequency at the midlands hub.
Chris Taylor, Technical Director, BCT Aviation Maintenance, said: “We’re delighted to have been appointed line maintenance provider for both Central Airlines and Ethiopian Cargo and Logistics Services at East Midlands Airport. BCT takes a proactive approach to maintenance that minimises deferred defects and maximises high dispatch reliability, which ensures that our dedicated engineering support delivers the highest levels of operational safety.
“Having been established at EMA for over fifteen years, it’s so gratifying for us to see how much the airport has developed and how important it has become to the UK for air freight. We look forward to continuing this development journey as a major airport partner.”
East Midlands Airport is the UK’s fastest growing cargo airport and is also hub for several major cargo operators such as DHL and Aerologic.
