Boeing Company (NYSE:BA) on Wednesday disclosed that it grabbed its largest-ever landing gear exchange deal at the Singapore Airshow.
Details
As per the deal, the company will support more than 75 Singapore Airlines Group aircraft across the 737 MAX and 787 fleets with flexible exchange and overhaul services.
The services are expected to extend gear life and reduce aircraft downtime.

William Ampofo, senior vice president, Parts & Distribution and Supply Chain, Boeing Global Services, said, “By combining our global inventory and rapid distribution capabilities with the carrier’s maintenance planning, this agreement helps deliver parts faster and closer to operations—reducing downtime and supporting consistent, reliable service.”
