New Australian Freight Operation

Can anybody shed some light on the new Freight Company owned by the boss of the Minardi F1 Team that is going to be flying 3, 747-200F aircraft from Melbourne to the USA.
Is this a rumour or a fact?

Minardi F1

It is European Aviation based Bournemouth UK flying ex-BA B747-200, converted to a combi for the teams and the cars.

Unlikely that they will be full -200F unless he has wet leased one in from Polar or the likes.

EAC own and fly several ex-BA Rolls Royce powered dash 236s in various colorful liveries.

Need 7-8 747F for one Grand Prix. Cargolux will be flying 3 or 4 for the YMX Grand Prix this year. Will be in STN & MUC to load for the race, then bring them back again afterwards.
