Boeing Shanghai Aviation Services recently signed a heavy maintenance agreement with Thomas Cook Airlines for supporting the UK carrier’s Boeing 767 fleet. Two Thomas Cook 767s have already gone to Boeing Shanghai’s facilities at Pudong International Airport to undergo extensive C-checks and another aircraft is due to arrive in the next few weeks.

The maintenance provider is a joint venture between Boeing, the Shanghai Airport Authorities and China Eastern Airlines. Last year, Boeing Shanghai became the first Chinese company to be granted Part 21 design organization approval from the European Aviation Safety Agency. Its airline customers include operators from across Asia as well as countries such as Russia.
