In May, Chapman Freeborn’s cargo charter team utilised Antonov’s iconic AN-26 turboprop aircraft to move urgent parts from Paris Vatry (XCR) to Athens (ATH) for an AOG situation.
In the event of an AOG (aircraft on ground), moving the parts to facilitate its repair in a timely manner is critical. Speed and efficiency in these circumstances is what keeps aircraft flying, production lines moving and entire systems running smoothly.
Thanks to Chapman Freeborn’s expertise in such situations, the vital cargo touched down in Athens less than 24 hours after the client’s initial request came in. Despite having to wait for all permits to be approved, the departure in fact took place ahead of schedule.
Taz Mears, Cargo Charter Broker, worked closely on this operation. He said, “By working collaboratively with both our airport and airline partners, Chapman Freeborn showcased our agility in the market, arranging an urgent AOG charter across Europe within 24 hours. This degree of speed and accuracy is only possible with such a strong global network and exceptionally experienced team.”
