The 1997 Maintenance Directory for Asia, Africa and Australasia (Flight International, 28 May-3 June) wrongly combines the entries for Hong Kong Aero Engine Services (HAESL) and Hong Kong Aircraft Engineering (HAECO). The organisations would like to emphasise that HAESL took on the engine-overhaul activities of HAECO as a separate corporate entity on 1 January, 1997. HAESL is a 50/50 joint venture set up between HAECO and Rolls-Royce.
