PEMCO redelivers 13th B737 freighter to China Postal EMS

PEMCO World Air Services (PEMCO) today announced the redelivery of its latest Boeing 737 passenger-to-freighter-conversion to Beijing-based China Postal Airlines EMS (CPA), the third 737-300 under the current five-aircraft agreement.

The fourth 737-300 conversion is already underway, with CPA’s 15th PEMCO 737 freighter expected within the next year as China Post expands its fleet in support of its 56 Cities Campaign.

This tranche of five conversions are being performed at STAECO’s Jinan Shandong China facility as part of a turnkey package including maintenance, bridging and full paint. PEMCO and STAECO have partnered on nearly 50 Boeing 737-300 and 737-400 freighter modification projects since 2006 and today provide seamless regional technical and spares support to Boeing 737 operators in China and beyond.

PEMCO’s latest CPA freighter delivery – a 737-300F – offers nine pallet positions, a full-featured cargo loading system with retractable sill plate and over-rideable side restraints, all engineered to deliver industry-leading reliability and a 43,100 lb. maximum payload.
