Singaporean MRO firm ST Aerospace has secured maintenance contracts worth S$540 million ($432 million) in the first quarter of 2012 for its Aircraft Maintenance and Modification, Component Total Support and Engine Total Support businesses.
These include an order for 15 Boeing 757-200 passenger-to-freighter (PTF) conversions, says the MRO firm.
Between January and March, ST Aerospace redelivered 90 aircraft for airframe-related maintenance and modification work.
For PTF conversions, it redelivered three Boeing 757-200 converted freighters to FedEx Express.
