The Bedek division of Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI), has secured two contracts, as the first results of a marketing drive in Asia. An Air India Boeing 747-200 is already undergoing a D-check and repyloning at Bedek's Ben-Gurion International Airport site in Tel Aviv. A China Northern airline McDonnell Douglas MD-82 is also in Israel for a D check, and an interior upgrade. David Arzi, general manager at Bedek, says that negotiations are under way with Air India for additional aircraft maintenance.
