NIPPON Cargo Airlines (NCA) will now resume its services tomorrow after grounding all its
freighters while checks were carried on aircraft records, reported
London's Air Cargo News.
The airline said that the investigation
into JA18KZ - a Boeing B747-8F - has been completed and flights using
the aircraft would resume, operating between Narita and Shanghai Pudong.
"The rest of the aircraft operation will resume in sequence as soon as
the aircraft safety is confirmed," NCA said in a short statement.
"We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and worries that we caused
our customers. We will do our utmost effort to check safety for
resuming operation as quickly as possible."
NCA took the step of laying up its freighter fleet of 11 aircraft
earlier this month after government inspectors identified an
"inappropriate maintenance record".
