Boeing, the aircraft manufacturer, has just signed a series of cooperation agreements with Chinese companies in the areas of aircraft maintenance, parts, and connectivity, demonstrating its continued bet on the world's second-largest aviation market.

According to China Daily , the deals were announced at the first-ever Greater China MRO exhibition held in Beijing. This is one of the largest events in the aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) industry in China.

In this context, Boeing signed a memorandum of understanding with CETC Avionics, a company based in Chengdu, to research and develop internet connectivity solutions for aircraft.

The company also reached an agreement to supply specialized parts packages with HNA Technic, a maintenance unit of Hainan Airlines Group. According to Boeing, the agreement will help customers access maintenance parts at lower costs, simplify procurement processes, and provide support services tailored to their specific needs.
