Maintenance Performance On Aircraft - China

Staff members of the Grand China Aviation Maintenance Co., Ltd. under the HNA Technic perform maintenance on an aircraft at the Hainan Free Trade Port (FTP) One-Stop Aircraft Maintenance Base in Haikou, south China's Hainan Province, on Nov. 21, 2025. The Hainan Free Trade Port (FTP) One-Stop Aircraft Maintenance Base, which started operation in 2022, has performed maintenance service on more than 2,400 aircraft, completed full-body painting for over 280 aircraft, and repaired about 60,000 aircraft components as of the end of October this year. The maintenance base has drawn global clients like Qatar Airways, Royal Air Philippines and Iberia. Under the Hainan FTP's favorable regulations, aircraft entering the region for maintenance are exempt from paying security deposits, and parts imported for repair benefit from a bonded status. The policy support is expected to be amplified following the FTP's official launch of island-wide independent customs operations on Dec. 18. Photo by Zhang Liyun/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.

Maintenance Workers Fix Locomotive Parts - Nairobi

A maintenance worker cleans locomotive parts in the repair workshop of the Mombasa-Nairobi Railway in Nairobi, Kenya, Jan. 23, 2025. Launched in May 2017, the Mombasa-Nairobi Railway, spanning approximately 480 km, connects the large Indian Ocean city of Mombasa with Nairobi, the country's capital and largest city. It is Kenya's first modern railway since independence and is hailed as a flagship project under the Belt and Road cooperation between China and Kenya. After eight years of operation, Africa Star Railway Operation Company (Afristar), the company operating the Mombasa-Nairobi Railway, initiated a maintenance program for 41 passenger cars and 10 locomotives on Jan. 15. With plans to complete the maintenance by May 31, these tasks will decrease the failure rate of locomotives during operation and ensure continuous safe and smooth transportation for its clients.
