Boeing tanks on target
Marshall Aerospace has been recognised for its outstanding work towards one of its most recent aviation projects. It is now over two years since initial design activities began for the auxiliary fuel tank programme, which saw the recent delivery of the first auxiliary fuel tank to Boeing for installation on their "Longer Range 747-400" model last month.
In acknowledgement of the programme's success, Kurt Kraft from Boeing 747–400ER Programme Management gave a presentation to the Marshall Aerospace team, in the hangar where the Tank Assembly Line is housed.
Kurt also presented a plaque to Martin Broadhurst, Marshall Aerospace CEO, in appreciation of the efforts of the 747 Tank's team, who work round-the-clock at the facility, keeping production on schedule.
