Airliner Repair, 24/7 Boeing’s traveling fix-it team (2008)

Boeing’s AOG (Airplane On Ground) team is responsible for fixing major incidents involving airplanes that have been grounded worldwide. The highly skilled team consists of mechanics, engineers, and inspectors who work together to quickly repair and restore aircraft. The team faces challenges such as shortage of available aircraft for replacement and making repairs within strict time constraints. Boeing has even made design changes to its airplanes to minimize damage and facilitate AOG repairs. Despite the difficulties, the AOG team takes pride in their work and the impact they have on keeping airlines operating smoothly.
