SINGAPORE, Feb. 4, 2026 — Boeing [NYSE: BA] successfully completed its 100th 787 Landing Gear Exchange (LGE) delivery, highlighting its commitment to innovative solutions that enhance operational efficiency and safety for its customers. The milestone delivery was received by ANA.
“The Landing Gear Exchange program has been instrumental in optimizing our maintenance operations and ensuring the highest levels of safety during our passengers’ journeys with us,” said Yukifumi Ueda, vice president and general manager, Engine, Component & Supply Chain, ANA. “This latest delivery demonstrates our strong partnership with Boeing and our commitment to providing exceptional, seamless service to our customers.”
ANA has received and installed landing gear assemblies through the exchange program on 30 of its 787s.
“This milestone reinforces our dedication to providing airlines with critical parts when and where needed to maximize fleet availability and strengthen operational resilience. By ensuring a reliable and efficient supply chain, we continue to drive measurable value for airline operations worldwide,” said William Ampofo, senior vice president, Parts & Distribution and Supply Chain, Boeing Global Services. “We are also investing in and expanding our exchange pool capacity to meet the growing needs of our customers as they begin their 787-9 overhaul cycle.”
Over the past 20 years, the LGE program has become the preferred choice for operators around the globe. Boeing has successfully contracted exchanges for more than 480 787 tails from 34 airlines into the landing gear exchange skyline – with many customers extending services or adding tails to the exchange. ANA has LGE contracts to support its 787-8 and 787-9 fleet. Other recent contracts include unnamed customers signing up for a total of 65 exchanges for their 787-8 and 787-9 fleets.
Boeing’s LGE program also offers a capital-efficient model eliminating the need for airlines to purchase and manage landing gear assets or oversee complex overhaul processes. By delivering forward exchange of certified, overhauled landing gear, the program reduces green time loss and aircraft downtime, enabling airlines to preserve liquidity, streamline maintenance, and focus on delivering seamless, reliable service to their customers.
