Supporting B737 P2F conversions at Gatwick
In late April 2022, JMC Group is beginning a two-year programme to support Boeing at its MRO facility at London Gatwick airport. The British aviation and aerospace engineering company will partner with Boeing on B737 passenger to freighter conversions.
A new dedicated conversion line at Boeing’s Gatwick hangar, which was completed in late 2019, has been established for the programme, as demand for narrow-body freighters continues to grow.
Tony Eversden, JMC Group head of engineering: "To be involved in the freighter conversion programme – the first for Boeing at its new dedicated facility in UK - gives us great pride. We tendered for the work back in the autumn, shortly after MRO Europe in Amsterdam and look forward to working closely with Boeing on the assignment." (ah)
