The aircraft maintenance hangars at Addis Ababa Bole International Airport in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, form part of the large Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) complex operated by Ethiopian Airlines. This facility is widely considered the largest aircraft maintenance hub in Africa. Over time, the complex has expanded to include eight aircraft hangars, allowing multiple aircraft to undergo maintenance simultaneously.

In terms of size and capacity, individual hangars in the complex are designed to handle very large aircraft. Some wide-body maintenance hangars can accommodate aircraft as large as the Boeing 747-8 or several smaller aircraft simultaneously, depending on configuration.

The scale of the facility allows technicians to perform heavy maintenance, structural repairs, painting, and major inspections on modern wide-body aircraft such as the Boeing 777, Boeing 787 Dreamliner, and Airbus A350. Because of this large capacity, the Bole maintenance complex can service Ethiopian Airlines’ own fleet as well as aircraft from many other airlines across Africa and the Middle East.

Overall, the Addis Ababa Bole hangar complex is not just a single building but a large multi-hangar maintenance campus. With several large hangars, extensive apron space, and specialized workshops, it is the largest and most advanced aircraft maintenance center in Africa, helping reduce the need for African airlines to send aircraft overseas for major repairs.
