2019年5月23日，廣州飛機維修工程有限公司（GAMECO）舉行了三期機庫開工奠基，該工程預計將在2021年12月竣工。
南航集團董事長、黨組書記王昌順發表講話，他提到GAMECO是南航機務系統的“排頭兵”和中堅力量，為南航的安全運行、提質增效和服務提升做出了重要貢獻。南航集團一直高度重視和支持GAMECO發展，今天開工的三期機庫將更好地保障南航安全運行，同時為拓展第三方業務、做強做大做優機務維修產業，奠定堅實的基礎。
GAMECO副董事長杜志強先生回顧了GAMECO成長歷程，他表示非常榮幸見證了GAMECO 的每一個重要進步，也始終對中國民航維修行業、對公司的發展前景充滿著信心。隨著國家進一步深化對外開放，尤其是“一帶一路”倡議的扎實推進，我們不但可以吸引更多的國際維修業務到這里來，未來我們還會有更好的機會走出去，把我們的維修站點開設到國外去，成為一個真正的國際化企業。
GAMECO總經理Norbert Marx發表了講話。他說：GAMECO已先后成立了重慶（航線）、清遠（起落架大修）、澳大利亞（航線）、新西蘭（航線）分公司，開設了深圳、汕頭異地C檢生產線，成立了零部件制造中心，維修布局更加完善；三期機庫的建成，將進一步加強GAMECO未來在維修行業的市場地位和競爭優勢。
三期機庫落成后，GAMECO定檢生產線總容量將從目前的20條增加至31條，將有效緩解GAMECO機體大修業務寬體維修機位不足的發展瓶頸，可為南航飛機定檢提供更加充足的生產空間、實現更加靈活的生產計劃，并為“客改貨”項目提供了設施上的保障。機庫投入使用后，有望帶動航線維修、附件修理、復合材料修理、起落架大修、飛機零部件制造等業務的發展，為南航機隊規模的快速增長提供有力的保障，同時也使GAMECO有更大的產能空間承接國內國外第三方業務。
同時也將為廣州空港經濟區帶來新的就業崗位和新增稅收，還可能產生聚集效應，帶動飛機維修及相關產業向區內集群，推動廣州空港經濟區向打造全球飛機維修產業中心的目標邁進。
三期機庫位于GAMECO一期機庫北側，工程總投資費用約為8.86億元人民幣，其中機庫建筑面積約9.85萬平方米，可停放6架寬體飛機和5架窄體飛機, 可同時容納A380和B777-300ER飛機進行深度維修；清洗/試車/維修機坪面積約5.9萬㎡。

On May 23rd 2019, GAMECO hosted the groundbreaking event for the Phase III Hangar and construction will last till December 2021.
Mr. Wang Changshun, chairman of CSN Group, delivered a speech. He mentioned that GAMECO, as the “pacemaker” and backbone of CSN’s M&E System, has made major contributions to CSN's safe operation, quality and efficiency improvement and service promotion. CSN Group always attaches great importance and provides support to the development of GAMECO. The Phase III Hangar will better ensure the safe operation of CSN and lay a solid foundation for further exploring third-party business and expanding the aircraft maintenance industry.
Looking back at the development of GAMECO, Mr. Simon To, the Deputy Chairman of GAMECO expressed his honor to witness every important progress of it, and he said he is always full of confidence in the civil aviation maintenance industry in China and the development prospects of GAMECO. As China deepens its opening up, especially the “One Belt, One Road” initiative, we can not only attract more international maintenance business, but also have better chance to go abroad and set foreign maintenance stations in the future and become an international MRO.#
At the groundbreaking event, Mr. Norbert Marx, the General Manager of GAMECO, introduced that GAMECO has successively established branches for line maintenance in Chongqing, Australia and New Zealand as well as for landing gear overhaul in Qingyuan, set up C Check production lines in Shenzhen and Shantou and built up Parts Manufacturing Center (PMC) to improve GAMECO’s maintenance layout. “The completion of Phase III Hangar will further strengthen GAMECO’s market position and competitive advantage in aircraft maintenance industry” stated by Mr. Marx.
After completion of Phase III Hangar, GAMECO’s slots will increase from the currently 20 heavy maintenance lines to up to 31 production lines. It will greatly relieve our shortage of capacity, offer more flexible production plans for CSN and support the execution of PTF Project. When Phase III Hangar is put into use, the development of line maintenance, component repair, composite repair, LDG overhaul, aircraft parts manufacturing, etc. will be accelerated to enable GAMECO to better support the rapid growth of CSN’s fleet and to carry out more domestic and overseas 3rd party business.
Phase III Hangar will create more job opportunities and contribute additional taxes to Guangzhou Airport Economic Zone. It may also generate an aggregation effect to cluster aircraft maintenance and related industries in the region and to drive Guangzhou Airport Economic Zone to achieve the goal of building a global aircraft maintenance industry center.
Phase III Hangar, located on the north to Phase I Hangar with total investment of 886 million CNY, covers a huge area of 98,500 square meters and can accommodate 6 wide-body aircraft (including A380 and B777-300ER) and 5 narrow-body aircraft for heavy maintenance at the same time, while the additional aprons take up an area of 59,000 square meters.
