History
1950s
HAECO was officially established in November 1950, following the merger of Pacific Air Maintenance and Supply Company (PAMAS) and Jardine Air Maintenance Company (JAMCo).
1960s
HAECO was floated on the Hong Kong stock market in 1965. By then, it was fully equipped to service the Convair 880M introduced by Cathay Pacific Airways. In 1968, the company began the construction of Asia’s largest aircraft maintenance hangar.
1970s
HAECO broadened its capabilities to include widebody aircraft and jet engine types, such as the L1011 TriStar series equipped with Rolls-Royce RB211 engines. The company became an official member of the Swire Group when Swire Pacific increased its shareholding to 51% in 1975.
1980s
With HAECO’s high standards and rapid turnaround times on major overhaul contracts, HAECO saw increasing business from international airlines. The first aircraft conversion - upgrading a L1011-1 Tristar to a L1011-150 - was successfully completed during this period.
1990s
The 90s saw the formation of HAECO’s joint ventures, including TAECO in Xiamen (now HAECO Xiamen) and HAESL in Hong Kong. In 1998, HAECO relocated to a brand new HK$1.4 billion facility at the then-new Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) in Chek Lap Kok.
2000s
HAECO Hong Kong expanded its facility with a second hangar and began work on its third. Additional MRO and component facilities were added in Xiamen and Jinjiang in the Chinese Mainland. TAECO (HAECO Xiamen) performed its first Boeing 747-200 passenger to all-freighter conversion, and in 2005 converted the world’s first 747-400 Boeing Converted Freighter for Cathay Pacific Airways.
2010s
In early 2014, HAECO acquired TIMCO Aviation Services (HAECO Americas) based in Greensboro, North Carolina, adding North America MRO airframe and cabin solutions to its portfolio. Additional operations were also launched in Hong Kong, Xiamen, Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Tianjin, Nanjing, Chongqing, Zhengzhou, Wuhan, Harbin, Ningbo and Hangzhou.
On 30 November 2018, HAECO became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Swire Pacific.
