The fleet is now counting a passenger to freighter B747-400B in addition to the 2 freighters in operation for more than a year. The next 2 airplanes will be Combi B747-400M after being modified to carry freight in the cabin. AMES has been working with the airplane owner for the past 6 months to review and enrol those additional B747s into our tracking system ADEL. Our activity in the cargo business has significantly increased in the past year due to our great working relations with airplane owner JETOneX and Longtail operator. We are all working on new projects to come!

The subject airplanes have been operating with various airlines for the past 15 years and we have conducted our airworthiness review to present them for their initial Certificate of Airworthiness application with Bermuda CAA. Both planes are fully running into our internal ADEL tracking system and this demonstrates again our capacity to deal with complex enrolment of new aircraft type, with large historical data in a fairly short time-frame. Feel free to contact us if you are looking for CAMO support for your Embraer airplane!

Damien holds an engineering degree from ESTACA in Paris and after spending a year working in CAMO team within a French Airline on A330/A350 he decided to join us. Damien will focus on our B787 fleet including the e-enabling activities. We are proud to have him on-board!

This airplane had been operating with an airline for several years and the work-scope included documentation review and on-site coordination with physical survey. In addition we have been contracted to offer CAMO services with a complete phase-in project in order to change airplane registration and be ready for the entry into service with the new operator. A major activity has been to prepare and reload the new airplane software certificates as part of the Initial Data Load / e-enabling services. This project has been achieved on a short time line allowing the plane to be already in operation. We are now increasing our knowledge and expertise on the B787 family! We are glad to have been contracted for this project by a reputable operator.
