Who's?Looks like STS are finally taking in the aircraft as I noticed a 787 going in the hangar yesterday.
Just drove along the Cov Road (As a passenger, May I add )
will these places be really busy whilst airlines decide to give there aircraft some TLC whilst not operational over the coming weeks/months
In an ideal world yes. Problem is how airlines would pay for it - they'll be wanting to reduce spending as much as possible as their cash flow dries up.
The well managed carriers will have made provision for on going and unexpected maintenance and current account cash flow should only have impact on future unplanned issues such as when aircraft go technical off station and emergency leasing of replacement equipment from WAMOS or HIFLY etc., this is my limited understanding.
STS may get a chance to prove their worth soon enough as AIRLINES bring forward necessary work during quiet times.
STS have not yet been granted regulator approval to carry out maintenance,. When granted they then have a period before they will get full approval to carry out heavy checks until then they can only lighter stuff like A checks, mods,AOG'S etc.
Short term storage checks are carried out regularly to keep aircraft in a ready to fly state.
Neos themselves I am told!!So who exactly is servicing the Neos 789s ?
I think apple who have the MRO 145, using STS hangar. STS need to get there own STS MRO 145 from the CAA.So who exactly is servicing the Neos 789s ?
Qatar A320 due in a couple of days
