The new hangar currently under structure is to be used by Virgin to carry out all maintenance on its LHR based fleet , with the exception of the C checks which will continue going to Dub and Ams .
It is also expected that Virgin will be taking over BA's contract for FLS hangar in LGW to carry out same work as above . Both hangars will be available 24/7 for casualty .Along with any other airline requirments . The hangar to be built at LHR will be big enough to house both the A340-600 and A380 when released
