Finnair Technical Services signs maintenance contract with Air New Zealand

Travel News Asia 2 August 2005

Finnair Technical Services and Air New Zealand have signed an over one million euro maintenance agreement for the overhaul of seven ATR72-500 aircraft's landing gear.

The maintenance work will be done at Helsinki-Vantaa Airport in 2005-2006 starting in August-September 2005. The aircraft are operated by Mount Cook Airlines, which is a regional operator belonging to Air New Zealand Group.

"The contract is a continuation of Finnair Technical Services landing gear repair department's extensive ATR customer work. Over half of the landing gear overhaul work done by this department comes from customers outside the Finnair Group," said Sales Manager Vesa Paukkeri from Finnair Technical Services.

During the past two years, the landing gear repair department's customers have included, among others, Air Tahiti from French Polynesia, Air Caledonie from New Caledonia, Xinjiang Airlines from China, Transasia Airways from Taiwan, Thai Airways International, Coast Air from Norway, Cimber Air from Denmark and Binter Canarias from Spain.

Of Finnair Technical Services' over 200 million euro turnover, approximately one third comes from maintenance contracts with third-party customers.
