- Wide-body heavy maintenance check program [宽体机重检程序]
This heavy maintenance programme is a comprehensive airframe service for wide-body commercial aircraft, encompassing structural integrity inspections, corrosion prevention, and complex systems testing. Managed by Ameco Beijing (北京飞机维修工程有限公司), a joint venture between Air China and Lufthansa, the service represents one of the largest MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul) capabilities in East Asia. The programme leverages the company’s established facilities at Beijing Capital International Airport to provide deep-level maintenance cycles, typically required every several years of an aircraft's operational life. The service is primarily procured by commercial flag carriers and international leasing companies requiring high-capacity hangar space for large-format jets. Notable operators associated with the provider include Air China and various international long-haul carriers operating routes into the Asia-Pacific region. Contracts are generally structured around fixed-scope D-checks or C-checks, often bundled with cabin interior refurbishments or engine changes to minimise downtime for the operator. From a procurement perspective, the primary risks involve slot availability and the logistical complexity of ferrying out-of-service aircraft to the Beijing hub. The desk would verify specific regulatory approvals, such as current CAAC, FAA, and EASA Part 145 certifications, to ensure the maintenance release is valid for the client's registered jurisdiction. Prospective buyers should also confirm the specific wide-body airframes currently supported, as tooling and spares availability varies by aircraft generation.
