Airline Maintenance

Because Hamilton Aero Maintenance was founded by two airline trained engineers there has always been a strong airline culture in their approach to engineering with very high standards in safety, reliability and on time performance. This has been reflected in the significant contracts that the company has been awarded over the years. Air New Zealand - Hamilton Aero Maintenance carried out preservice checks and defect rectification on Boeing 737-200 aircraft overnighting at Hamilton from 1985 until their withdrawal in September 2000M Kiwi International Airlines - In 1995 Hamilton Aero Maintenance carried out maintenance support and scheduled maintenance on Kiwi leased Boeing 727-200, 757-200 and Airbus A320 aircraft until their demise in 1997 Freedom Air / Air New Zealand - In 1997 Air New Zealand awarded Hamilton Aero Maintenance the full maintenance contract for Freedom's Boeing 737-300 aircraft excluding C checks. This contract is still current but today Freedom Air operates a fleet of Airbus A320's. Update: On the 29th March 2008 the Freedom Air brand was retired and on the 30th March the first A320 under the Air New Zealand International brand departed Hamilton Airport. We continue to maintain the A320s for Air NZ at Hamilton. Origin Pacific Airways - In 2002 Hamilton Aero Maintenance gained a contract to carry out service checks on Origin's Jetstream J4100 aircraft which overnighted in Hamilton prior to the airline's subsequent demise in 2006.   Contact:   Dave Stewart - drstewart@hamiltonaero.co.nz © Hamilton Aero Maintenance Ltd.
