Full IL-76 aircraft charter transportation

Mar 30, 2021

Adapting to new market conditions during a pandemic is an important aspect of the situation in which logistics companies have to work now.

In an unpredictable situation when the borders for land transport may be closed – and the cargo must be delivered without delay – air transportation is an excellent solution. As part of a large project of hydro plant rehabilitation, our team successfully organized the air charter transportation of a fully loaded with 43400 kg (80 cbm) of equipment aircraft IL-76 from China to Kyrgyzstan.
