Meanwhile, Boeing is adding a 767-300 Boeing Converted Freighter (BCF) conversion line at ST Engineering's airframe facility in Guangzhou, South China's Guangdong Province in the second half of 2022.

Last year, Boeing also announced plans to add eight 737-800BCF conversion lines across new and existing Maintenance, Repair, and Operation (MRO) suppliers.
