BCT Aviation Maintenance has successfully completed an Airbus A320 6-Year C Check at its base maintenance facility at East Midlands Airport, demonstrating the depth of its engineering expertise and capability in delivering complex heavy maintenance programmes.
Undertaken on behalf of Advantage Aviation Services Sweden AB, the project involved an extensive programme of inspections alongside a series of complex structural repairs, providing an opportunity for BCT's experienced engineering team to demonstrate its capabilities across a wide range of A320 maintenance disciplines.
A key advantage of the project was BCT's ability to offer a complete maintenance-to-paint solution at East Midlands Airport. With both base maintenance and aircraft painting available on the same site, the aircraft could move directly from its maintenance programme into the paint facility without the need for additional ferry flights to another location. This integrated approach offers operators tangible savings in both time and cost, reducing aircraft movements, simplifying logistics and helping to optimise overall turnaround.
Following completion of the maintenance programme, the aircraft was fully repainted by BCT's trusted partner, Airbourne Colours, before its departure from East Midlands Airport, ready to enter service with its new operator.
The successful completion of the project highlights BCT Aviation Maintenance's ability to deliver complex base maintenance inputs, while offering operators the additional benefit of an integrated service solution. Combining experienced engineering personnel, established industry partnerships and on-site painting capability, BCT provides a streamlined approach to aircraft maintenance that responds to the operational and commercial priorities of commercial aircraft operators.
Congratulations go to the BCT engineering team, whose dedication, technical expertise and breadth of specialist skills were instrumental in delivering this maintenance programme, further demonstrating the depth of engineering capability within the business.
BCT would also like to thank Advantage Aviation Services Sweden AB for entrusting us with this project, and Airbourne Colours for its ongoing support in preparing customer aircraft.
