The move to Hangar 30, which is situated on the airport’s western maintenance area, allows for a wider range of services to be carried out at EMA ranging from cabin configurations to structural metal repairs. Aircraft types that are initially approved for support are A320 Series, B737 CL, B737 NG.
Chris Taylor, GM Base Maintenance at BCT Aviation Maintenance, commented: “Our move to Hangar 30 is an extremely exciting development. To get the facility to the standard we need within the time frame available during a worldwide pandemic simply reflects the company’s dedication to making Hangar 30 a reality. I am personally immensely proud of the drive and tenacity demonstrated by everyone involved in this project.”
Phill Morris, East Midlands Airport’s Operations Director, said: “We’re delighted that BCT Aviation, which has been based at EMA for almost 13 years, is expanding and we’re pleased to support their continued growth. Serving some of the world’s largest airlines, this is an important business to have on site and is evidence of just how diverse airports are as employment sites.”
