Ontic has introduced an exchange and overhaul program for Boeing 747 leading-edge flap drive units, according to Air Cargo Week. The report describes it as the first service under the company’s CargoCare brand.
Key details
- The program supplies a serviceable replacement unit when a customer sends a removed unit to Ontic; Air Cargo Week says exchange times start at 48 hours. - Ontic plans to overhaul returned units at its maintenance, repair and overhaul facility in Tewkesbury, United Kingdom, and return them to the exchange pool. - Customers can choose a dedicated or shared pool. The report also lists fixed-price overhauls, an extended warranty, flexible commercial terms and support from Ontic hubs in multiple regions.
Air Cargo Week reports that exchange times start at 48 hours.
Why it matters
The exchange arrangement gives Boeing 747 operators a replacement flap drive unit while Ontic handles the overhaul and recirculation of the returned part. The Tewkesbury facility will support that process.
What happens next
Ontic intends to expand CargoCare to additional aircraft platforms and parts, according to Air Cargo Week. The report gives no further timeline for those offerings.
