GA Telesis is exercising an option for a second B737-800SF freighter conversion with AEI.
This news follows an announcement for the first B737-800SF awarded in July 2020. The second aircraft (MSN 28826) will commence modification at the end of January 2021 and is scheduled for redelivery in early May 2021.
All modification touch labor will be performed by the authorized AEI Conversion Center, Commercial Jet, in Miami, Florida.
“GA Telesis exercising its option aircraft immediately after the first order, solidifies their focus on the air cargo sector and further supports the outlook of the B737-800SF being the dominate freighter in the narrowbody market for decades to come,” said Robert Convey, AEI Senior Vice President Sales & Marketing.
