Irish lessor discovers cargo business


Avolon is making a significant commitment to the global air freighter market to capitalise on the growth in e-commerce. The international aircraft leasing company based in Dublin has signed an agreement with Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI).

 

Avolon will be the launch customer for the conversion company's A330-300 freighter programme. The agreement will see Avolon partner with IAI on its STC development and take 30 conversion slots between 2025 and 2028.

 

With a range of over 3,600 nm at maximum payload of 61 t, the IAI A330-300 product aims to offer a competitive edge to air cargo operators looking to expand or replace their medium wide body freighter fleets. It provides up to 27 main deck pallet positions, one more than the competition, easily accessible through an optimised door position. (ah)
