HAECO strengthens landing gear capabilities with first C909 overhaul

HAECO is pleased to announce the successful completion of the first landing gear overhaul for the COMAC C909 regional jet, marking a significant addition to its landing gear service capabilities in the Chinese Mainland. The overhaul was completed by HAECO Landing Gear Services in Xiamen, adding a new aircraft platform to the company’s specialised landing gear portfolio and extending support for regional aircraft operators. The project underscores the close collaboration between Liebherr-Aerospace as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and HAECO as the service provider. Through this partnership, HAECO continues to broaden its technical offering in the Chinese Mainland by pairing its C909 landing gear overhaul expertise with Liebherr’s expertise as OEM. Sandra Nieuwenhuijzen, Group Director Components & Engine Services of HAECO, said, “The completion of the first C909 landing gear overhaul marks an important step in the continued development of HAECO’s landing gear capabilities. It reflects our commitment to building the right expertise, infrastructure and partnerships to support customers with reliable, high-quality solutions in the Chinese Mainland and beyond.” This milestone highlights HAECO’s continued investment in specialised MRO capabilities and its focus on building long-term partnerships that enhance support for operators across the region. The C909 programme aligns with HAECO’s broader strategy to strengthen its landing gear business and adapt to changing fleet requirements in Asia.
