There was a start-up company in Turkey last year, OREX. they started with A300C4 and B4F and wanted to lease 742F
Does anybody know, if they are still operating? At least the homepage is completely outdated!

One of the A300īs is currently in CPH after the maintenance facility went bankrupt mid C-chk. I believe efforts are being made by AI to recover the Ac but this is being done at the behest of the owners not the operators.
Couldnīt tell you any more....

Last information I heard about 4 weeks ago was they had a contract signed with China eastern for 18 months.
They still were deciding on either leasing two 747/2 freighters or two DC-10's.
As far as I know they are still operating.

Any details?
