News & Updates

Starting June 2021, BCT Aviation Maintenance is delighted to be providing Line Maintenance support for TAP Express at our Line Stations at Manchester (MAN) and Dublin (DUB) Airport.

TAP Express are operating from Manchester and Dublin to Lisbon Airport with E190 and E195 aircraft. As they visit Manchester and Dublin, BCT Aviation Maintenance will be providing departure support as the aircraft Night-Stop.

After a challenging year for the aviation industry, it's brilliant to see flights increase and we are extremely pleased to

be supporting TAP Express.

Alan Steer our General Manager Line Maintenance commented:

‘’In this current climate, airlines are struggling to keep their operating costs to an absolute minimum in order to combat the effects of Covid, caused by the significant reduction in passenger numbers.

The Embraer 170/190 aircraft with its lower operating costs, is becoming a much more popular choice on the Intereuropean routes, that would normally be flown by the more traditional Boeing and Airbus variants. 

At BCT Aviation Maintenance we are fortunate by the fact that a significant number of our team of highly qualified engineers at MAN, DUB, ORK and BHX are approved on this particular aircraft type as well as the Boeing and Airbus variants. This has allowed us to expand into this market and offer our European Embraer customers the specific services that they require. 

We are delighted to be able to offer support and assistance to TAP Express with their services to both DUB and MAN.’’
