Walter Heerdt, senior vice president, marketing and sales, said: “The signing of a second 747-8 completion contract within six months is a fantastic success for our VIP centre in Hamburg. I am convinced that we will see further completions contracts for this type of aircraft in the future.”

He added: “We will also be able to support our VIP customers with comprehensive MRO services over the complete life-cycle of the aircraft through our dedicated VIP aircraft maintenance organisation.”

Lufthansa Technik has recently signed contracts, or is in final talks about the completion of a considerable number of wide-body and more than 10 narrow-body aircraft.
