Kalitta Air takes leased 747-400F from General Electric's GECAS
MICHIGAN's Kalitta Air, a leading provider of air cargo transport, has taken delivery of the first of two leased 747-400F factory freighters from General Electric Capital Aviation Service (GECAS).
While GECAS has previously provided debt financing to Kalitta on several 747-400's (both factory and converted freighters), this delivery is the first aircraft on lease to Kalitta from GECAS, adding capacity to Kalitta Air's existing fleet of more than 15 widebody freighters.
Serving a range of clients - from DHL to the US military - Kalitta combines global air cargo service with comprehensive airframe and engine maintenance services.
GECAS, a consistent lender to Kalitta Air over the past several years, welcomes the chance to provide leasing solutions to this air cargo industry stalwart, said the GE company.
"Based on our relationship and its continued growth. GECAS is pleased to transition these 747-400Fs to Kalitta," said GECAS vice president Chris Damianos.
Said Kalitta founder ad CEO Conrad Kalitta: "GECAS has been very supportive of Kalitta Air as we have renewed our fleet."
