SHANGHAI, Feb 2010 — Boeing Shanghai Aviation Services Co., Ltd announced that the maintenance, repair and overhaul facility has received a two-year certification from Korea Civil Aviation Safety Authority. The new certification comes less than two months after the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration authorized an expanded scope of airplane maintenance operations for the facility.
The newly obtained certification allows Boeing Shanghai to conduct heavy maintenance on Boeing 737s within KCASA management scope, as well as approved non-destructive testing work. The new KCASA certification further expands Boeing Shanghai's ability to serve a broad base of international customers.
Boeing Shanghai was established in June 2006 as a joint venture of Boeing, Shanghai Airport Authorities and Shanghai Airlines. The mission of Boeing Shanghai is to provide high quality modification, maintenance, repair and overhaul services to regional and international airlines as well as to domestic Chinese airlines.
The Boeing Company is a global enterprise, the world leader in aerospace and a long-time partner in China’s aviation industry. Boeing is committed to helping ensure safe, advanced commercial aviation in China.
