AFI KLM E&M and Bamboo Airways have set a basis for new cooperation over the long-term future, via an MOU outlining the MRO’s potential deployment of adaptive support solutions across a range of domains.
Following on from their initial contracts focusing on the maintenance of Bamboo Airways’ fleet of Boeing 787, Airbus A320 and Embraer aircraft, the MOU outlines the possibility of extending commercial relation in the field of engine support, including taking on shop visits for the GEnx engines fitted on Bamboo Airways’ Boeing 787 fleet and for the engines equipped on its A320 family. AFI KLM E&M may also be called upon for new C-Check maintenance visits for the Boeing 787s at its facilities in Amsterdam, as well as line maintenance operations across an extended stopover network based on the destinations Bamboo Airways flies to. The Vietnamese operator will also gain access to the capabilities of EPCOR, the AFI KLM E&M affiliate specialising in the maintenance of APUs, for support of its APS2300 (EJets) and APS5000 (Boeing 787) products.
