Allied Air Takes Ownership Of Second AEI B737-800SF Freighter

Aeronautical Engineers, Inc. (AEI) has shared that its customer, Nigeria-based Allied Air, has taken ownership of a second AEI B737-800SF freighter (MSN 30146) in a third-party transaction. This aircraft is the second youngest 737-800 converted freighter with a build date of 2010. Allied Air took delivery of its first B737-800SF freighter from AEI in October of 2020.

“The AEI B737-800SF freighter has been faithfully serving our cargo routes for four years,” said Captain Valentine Tongo, Allied Air CEO. “This second AEI freighter will augment our existing customers’ growing cargo transportation needs.”

As Allied Air continues to expand, the company has said they plan to have a fleet of up to eight (8) AEI B737-800SF freighters by 2028.

“The movement of 737-800s returning to service is a good sign overall that the lull in the narrowbody conversion market is beginning to resolve,” stated Robert T. Convey, AEI Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “We believe that the market and demand for narrowbody freighters will begin to return to normal by mid-2026.”
