Transporting an aircraft from Brazil to Florida


Antonov Airlines has transported parts for an aircraft in cooperation with DB Schenker Brazil from Viracopos, Brazil to Miami, USA, with one week’s notice for planning and executing the project.

 

The unusual cargo was dismantled into consignments with dimensions that met the AN-124-100 aircraft specifications filling six wooden crates. They included 15 m long wing sections and two sections of fuselage measuring 12 m long.

 

To handle these dimensions, special loading equipment designed and manufactured by Antonov Airlines was used in conjunction with two external cranes and forklifts

 

According to commercial executive Ivan Bozhko, other assets were "the expertise of our in-house engineers, strong communication channels with the customer, and the flexibility of both parties". (ah)
