Boeing has awarded Mincham Aviation a contract to manufacture four assembly-spare-part sets for the CH-47 Chinook after the South Australian company was identified during recent Boeing Office of Australian Industry Capability (OAIC) conferences.
The contract “is the first step in what we hope will be a long term relationship with Boeing,” said Daryll Mincham, managing director of Micham Aviation. “We initially approached the OAIC with the intention of achieving a contract within three years, so gaining a contract in less than 12 months is well beyond our expectations.”
