Mammoth Freighters inducted its first B777-200LR for passenger-to-freighter conversion at STAECO's facility at Qingdao Jiaodong airport in China on October 15, 2026, launching its first Asian conversion line.

The aircraft, N60VL (msn 39254), is owned by Jetran and was previously operated by Air India as VT-AEI and Delta Air Lines as N708DN, ch-aviation data shows. The Chinese newspaper Qingdao Daily reported that the conversion into a B777-200LR(MF) is expected to take approximately 200 days.

Mammoth selected STAECO as its Chinese conversion partner in July 2026 and plans to open a second line there in early 2027. Its conversion network, which also includes Fort Worth Alliance in the US and Manchester in the UK, is planned to accommodate up to nine production lines.

The US Federal Aviation Administration certified Mammoth's B777-200LR(MF) conversion in April 2026. The first completed aircraft was delivered to Jetran in August for eventual operation by DHL Air (D0, Nottingham East Midlands).

Jetran has more than two dozen B777-200LR(MF)s on order, including 13 earmarked for DHL Express and five for Qatar Airways. Separately, Ethiopian Airlines has contracted to convert two B777-200LRs from its existing fleet, Jetran president Kevin Casey told industry outlet FreightWaves in April.

ACIA Aero has delivered to FedEx Express (FX, Memphis International) the world's first ATR72-600(P2F) with large cargo door (LCD), the lessor announced on social media.

The aircraft is N830FE (msn 1239), an 11.6-year-old aircraft that operated for Air Madagascar between 2015 and 2018 and for Tsaradia between 2018 and 2024. In July 2025, ACIA announced that it had sold the first ATR72-600(P2F) LCD to FedEx.

“We see strong demand for modern turboprop freighters, and we are delighted to have played a part in bringing this capability to market,” ACIA Aero said in a statement.

In March 2025, FedEx ordered ten ATR72-600Fs from ATR - Avions de Transport Régional.

ch-aviation fleets data shows FedEx currently sources twenty-four ATR72-600Fs from operators including ASL Airlines Ireland, Empire Airlines, Gulf & Caribbean Cargo, Mountain Air Cargo, and Swiftair.
