Aircraft and Programs Divisions General core business is based on two complementary elements: MRO and cargoconversions. Providing Upgrade and Conversion services to transform aging aircraft into cost-effective 21st century platforms, the Aircraft Division offers Tailor-Designed solutions that improve competitiveness. Pax to Freighter Conversion, Corrosion Prevention Control Programs, Structure Reinforcement, Avionics Upgrade and Completion Programs are only a few of the solutions that the Bedek Aviation Group /Aircraft and Programs Divisions General implement to give an aircraft a new lease on life.
The conversion kit suppliers and the conversion sites are carefully selected and the leading work forces are going through a long process, including on-the-job training in the Bedek facility. To meet the cargo market demand for the 767-200, Shenyang Aviation Company (SAC) was chosen as the kit supplier and Varig Engineering & Maintenance (VEM) was selected as an additional conversion site under IAI/Bedek supervision.
A benefit of being an experienced MRO provider, allows incorporating heavy maintenance while converting the aircraft, adding significant value to the customer, by minimizing costs and downtime.
