Construction of Airbus Services Center Starts in Chengdu

The Airbus Lifecycle Services Center project broke ground in Chengdu, Southwest China’s Sichuan Province on Tuesday, another milestone for the project since Airbus signed the investment agreement with its partners in April this year.

The project is Airbus' first aircraft lifecycle service project outside Europe. The company said the project has moved from the planning stage to construction and the aim is for it to enter into service by the end of 2023.

The Lifecycle Services Center project is the first one-stop service center for aged aircraft established by Airbus in China, with the concept of sustainable development. It provides a wide range of second-life services, including aircraft parking and storage, return-to-service checks or upgrading, airframe maintenance, disassembling and recycling.

Chengdu is the third city in the Chinese mainland to have dual international hub airports. The total scale of its aerospace industry has exceeded 80 billion yuan, according to a report by Chengdu Daily in January.
