GMF AeroAsia completes landing gear overhaul for K-Mile Air freighter

GMF AeroAsia has completed a landing gear overhaul for a freighter operated by Thai cargo carrier K-Mile Air, underscoring the Indonesian maintenance provider’s role in regional component support. The work was carried out at GMF’s facilities near Jakarta and covered full disassembly, inspection, repair and reassembly of the aircraft’s landing gear shipset.

According to information published by GMF, its landing gear workshops handle comprehensive overhaul activities, including dimensional checks, corrosion assessment, damage and wear evaluation, and replacement or refurbishment of life-limited parts. The K-Mile Air project followed this standard process, with the gear returned to service after completing testing and certification steps in line with regulatory requirements.

GMF AeroAsia, a subsidiary of Garuda Indonesia, has been expanding its component and landing gear capabilities as Southeast Asia’s fleet of narrowbody and freighter aircraft grows. K-Mile Air operates cargo services across the region, and the completed overhaul provides an additional in-region option for heavy landing gear maintenance, reducing downtime associated with sending components to more distant facilities.
