JERUSALEM, May 4 (Xinhua) The Israeli state-run company Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) said on Tuesday that it will establish a Boeing 777 passenger-to-cargo conversion facility at Incheon International Airport, the largest airport in the Republic of Korea (ROK).
The facility will be set up due to the expected increase in demand for wide-body freighter aircraft with long-flight capacity, IAI noted.
It will be established together with the Incheon International Airport Corporation and the ROK s aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul services company Sharp Technics K.
The facility will specialize in converting B777-300ER and B777-200LR passenger aircraft to Boeing 777-ERSF freighter. This Big Twin freighter was launched by Boeing, the IAI and Irish-American aviation giant GECAS in October 2019.
