At the Singapore Airshow 2026, Boeing has announced the largest landing gear exchange (LGE) contract in its history, which includes over 75 aircraft from the Singapore Airlines (SIA) Group.
Boeing has declared that, under this contract, it will supply landing gear exchanges for more than 75 aircraft within the 737 MAX and 787 fleets operated by the Singapore Airlines Group.
In a statement released on February 4, 2026, the aircraft manufacturer mentioned that the landing gear exchange program “offers gear overhaul scheduling flexibility,” optimizing the useful life of the gears and minimizing aircraft downtime.
“Our relationship with the SIA Group is built on delivering dependable solutions,” said William Ampofo, Senior Vice President at Parts & Distribution and Supply Chain division at Boeing Global Services. “This agreement helps deliver parts faster and closer to operations – reducing downtime and supporting consistent, reliable service.”
Boeing’s Landing Gear Exchange program enables airlines to obtain ready-to-use landing gear through a managed inventory and partner network, which decreases spare inventory requirements, limits maintenance-related aircraft on-ground time, and improves fleet reliability.
Program gains global traction
The agreement with Singapore Airlines comes as Boeing works to broaden the program’s global reach.
In a separate statement released the same day, the company announced completion of its 100th 787 Landing Gear Exchange delivery for All Nippon Airways (ANA).
The Japan-based carrier currently uses the program to support its Boeing 787-8 and 787-9 fleets and has installed exchange landing gear assemblies on approximately 30 aircraft.
Boeing added that new customers have recently signed agreements for a total of 65 landing gear exchanges for their 787 fleets, but did not disclose specific details.
