Gamco

Good morning Sir,

Currently the GAMCO facility is out of service due to, I believe, a fire involving a QR aircraft, which is now quite badly damaged. Not confirmed but led to believe an A300. No damage reported to hangar and thankfully only one minor injury reported. The RFF went down to 0 due to all available units attending the fire, but was relatively quickly back up to 9 for all inbound aircraft, and no diversions were necessary.

The hangar and associated offices will be out of action for the remainder of the day.

Regards.
