Brits contracted RBA to do 6 "C" Checks in Brunei over the winter, November to February.

The contract may now be in jeopardy if the docking for the new hangar is not delivered and erected until February next year. The original intent was for RBA (a UKCAA JAR145 approval holder) to run two lines in Base maintenance, one in the original hangar (refurbished two years ago) and the other in the hangar next door they took over when it was vacated by the Royal Flight recently.

In the long term, I'd say that Brits management are seriously looking at putting more aircraft through cheap JAR145 approval holders overseas to cut costs. Watch out for your jobs lads! Weekend working is better than not working at all.
