BCT Aviation Maintenance has achieved a significant regulatory milestone after securing approval from the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to extend its Part-145 base maintenance C Check capability to 84 months for Airbus A320 family and Boeing 737 Classic and Next Generation aircraft. This latest approval marks a strategic enhancement of BCT’s heavy base maintenance capability, enabling the company to perform extended interval C Checks on two of the world’s most widely operated narrowbody platforms. With global fleets of Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 aircraft continuing to dominate short and medium-haul operations, demand for efficient, flexible, and cost-effective maintenance solutions remains high. BCT’s enhanced capability is designed to support operators managing high-cycle aircraft, where maintenance optimisation is critical to balancing cost efficiency with operational reliability. Additionally, the approval confirms BCT’s continued compliance with stringent Part-145 regulatory requirements, alongside demonstrated expertise in structural maintenance, engineering oversight, and fleet maintenance planning. The extension also reflects the organisation’s investment in skilled personnel, advanced tooling, and robust reliability management processes. Commenting on the extension approval, Ryan Winfield, Head of Sales at BCT Aviation Maintenance, said: “By extending our C Check capability, BCT is providing operators and lessors with increased flexibility to optimise maintenance schedules, reduce downtime, and improve overall fleet utilisation. This approval reinforces BCT’s position within the European MRO market, particularly in the narrowbody base maintenance sector, and it’s a credit to our experienced team that we are able to further demonstrate the strength of our base maintenance capability.” Operating from its hangar facility at East Midlands Airport, BCT is strategically positioned to support UK and European airline customers. The MRO delivers a full suite of heavy maintenance services, including structural inspections, corrosion control, systems troubleshooting, embodiment of airworthiness directives and service bulletins, and aircraft return-to-service under multiple regulatory authorities, including UK CAA, FAA, TCCA, and various offshore registers.
