October 28, 2019 — Guangzhou Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Company Limited (GAMECO) and Boeing announced plans to launch a 737-800 Boeing Converted Freighter production line at GAMECO’s Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport hangar, as the 737-800BCF program responds to growing demand.

 

“We are excited about this partnership which recognizes the immense value we provide,” said Norbert Marx, general manager of GAMECO. “We are working closely with Boeing to prepare for inaugurating the first aircraft for conversion in 2020.”

 

This Boeing’s newest freighter has achieved 130 orders and commitments since it was launched in 2016. The program is on pace to deliver 17 737-800BCFs in 2019, more than doubling last year’s output.

The project was settled in GAMECO, which added new business growth points for GAMECO and further expanded the third-party business market of GAMECO.
