AmeriJet International (Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood and Miami) has completed a lease agreement with Air Transport Services Group, Inc. and its leasing subsidiary, Cargo Aircraft Management, Inc. (CAM), for a second Boeing 767-200F freighter.
Under the seven-year agreement, Amerijet will dry-lease its second Boeing 767-232 special freighter from CAM. CAM delivered the first leased freighter to Amerijet in March 2010. Amerijet also holds options to lease three additional 767 freighters from CAM.
CAM is providing turnkey assistance to Amerijet as the leased aircraft enter its operating fleet. CAM will provide access to engine maintenance for Amerijet via CAM’s contract with Delta TechOps, a subsidiary of Delta Air Lines, Inc. CAM arranged Boeing 767 training for Amerijet pilots through ABX Air, which also provided maintenance manuals and technical assistance to help Amerijet obtain 767 operating certification. Airborne Maintenance & Engineering Services, another ATSG subsidiary, will provide line and heavy maintenance services, component exchange services and engineering services to Amerijet as necessary to support its daily aircraft operations.
