CDB Aviation announced the completion of a sale transaction for two Airbus A330-200 aircraft with National Airlines (“National”). The Florida-based cargo and passenger charter services operator took delivery of the Rolls-Royce Trent 700 engine-powered versions of the aircraft in July and October 2024 and plans to deploy the two widebodies to provide charter transportation services. #cargo #freighter #aviation #aircraftleasing #WeDeliverTheWorld National Air Cargo, Inc. https://lnkd.in/e8qFcEsG

Have a look at our Top 5 most numerous aircraft in our fleet, and then recall what was shared in another recent article by Simple Flying: According to United Airlines, "We're making our fleet bigger and your experience better than ever by adding up to 200 widebody planes — the largest order by a U.S. carrier in commercial airline history. We will have more than 800 new planes in our fleet by 2032." #airlines #aviation #avgeeks

In mid-2024, Qantas said they would acquire 14 additional mid-life Q400s by the end of calendar 2024 to operate under the QantasLink brand and replace the outgoing Q200s and Q300s. While Qantas declined to say where they were sourcing the aircraft from, Canada's WestJet was quickly identified as the seller. Last week, a former WestJet Encore Q400 repainted in QantasLink colours slipped out of Canada's Sault Sainte Marie Airport for the ferry flight to Australia, landing at Darwin Airport on December 8 before continuing onto Brisbane later that day. The 11.5 year old aircraft will go into the Australian register as VH-84A (msn 4447) and is the first of the 14 to arrive in Australia. The registered operator will be the 100% wholly owned Qantas subsidiary Sunstate Airlines. #airlines #aviation #news #ferryflights #fleets #q400 #turboprops #planes
