On May 18, 2020, a B737-800 was towed into GAMECO hangar, marking the inauguration of its first B737-800 PTF (passenger to freighter) conversion after half-year preparation.
Nowadays, under the pandemic prevention and control activities going on around the world, a serious shortage of capacity has been exposed in the air cargo market. With a surge in demands for all freighters, the opening of this GAMECO PTF production line can meet the increasing air cargo transportation demands home and abroad, as well as contribute to the capacity expansion of global air cargo market.
It is the first time GAMECO has carried out a PTF conversion on a B737-800, a leap in GAMECO’s maintenance capacity and a solid step forward to become a top-class MRO in the world. It is reported that the second B737-800 PTF conversion production line will be put into action in the second half of this year.
