AviaAM Leasing has purchased two more Boeing 737-800 aircraft for Passenger-to-Freighter (P2F) conversions.
The aircraft are the fifth and sixth Boeing 737-800 respectively inducted to cargo conversion, with the previous three already delivered to the lessee and the fourth to be delivered in late January. The aircraft are being operated by Bluebird Nordic, a growing Iceland-based cargo airline that offers ACMI and full-service cargo services.
“We continue to execute our plan related to Boeing 737-800BCF conversion program and thus support our group’s cargo airlines with more efficient cargo aircraft,” said Tadas Goberis, CEO and Chairman of AviaAM Leasing. “Each of the conversion project we undertake requires detailed planning and complex solutions. We are proud to continue this project and to strengthen our presence in the air cargo market as a reliable leasing and trading service provider.”
The two aircraft have already been inducted for P2F conversions at the Taikoo (Shandong) Aircraft Engineering Company Limited (STAECO) facility in Jinan (TNA), China. The conversion is expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2023.
