Flyington Freighters

[Wings Of Fury]

Does anybody know what the situation is with Flyington Freighters?

All I have found is that they are going to be the launch customer for the
A330-200F in July 2009.
Are they operating at present ?? with A300-600F?
All I know is that Flyington Freighters is a start-up all-cargo airline based in Hyderabad, India. It plans to operates services from India to destinations such as China, Europe, Africa and West Asia. I heard they will/were to commence operations as of July 2007??

Anyone know anything more???

Thanks any and all,

Wings Of Fury.

they haven't commenced ops as yet. they were originally supposed to get the 777's ... but changed their minds to the A330's ... one can only wait and watch.

the new kid on the block is deccan express & logistics ... Deccan Express Logistics (http://www.deccanexpress.in)

It is almost 2011....
Any news?

As I understand whole plan was called off after AB decided not to supply the A332F after the fiasco with the US air tanker project.
Company went ahead sued AB and the case is going on...

Also the market crash pretty much killed off any chance of a revival of any cargo outfit in the SE asia particularly India.... :ugh:

Airbus cancelled Flyington's order after non-PDP payment (http://www.flightglobal.com/articles/2011/02/03/352744/airbus-cancelled-flyingtons-order-after-non-pdp-payment.html)

This seems to explain the 'business practice' of Flyington...
