World Airways extends B747F lease
21-Dec-2007 : WORLD Airways, has signed agreements with subsidiaries of Aircastle for long-term leases of two Boeing 747-400 freighters, to be delivered in March and October 2008.

“World Airways was the first customer for the Boeing 747C convertible cargo/passenger aircraft in 1973, and World eventually operated or leased a total of four passenger and cargo 747s,” said Rob Binns, chief marketing officer. “Those 747-100s left the World Airways fleet by 1983. Today we welcome the return of the 747 to meet the growing global cargo demands of this decade and beyond.”

World Airways cargo fleet consists of six MD-11F and two DC-10-30 freighters.
