UK aircraft maintenance organisation ATC Lasham reports growing vip and corporate business. Ceo Nicolas Cook says: "Some 14 corporate owners flying Boeing 737/727 and BBJ aircraft, including head of state aircraft, now use ATC Lasham for their maintenance requirements." ATC's capability was boosted with the acquisition of a new maintenance facility in St Athan, South Wales, in November 2005. St Athan was acquired to cover the temporary loss of one of ATC's four bays at the Lasham facility. This is undergoing modification to enable Lasham to expand its Boeing 757 activity. Cook says: "Following modification, the Lasham facility will be able to accommodate either the 757 or 737 NG aircraft."
