At least twenty-two carriers have reconfigured close to seventy passenger aircraft, and Cargo Facts this week released an update to its new Passenger-Freighter Database that illustrates the degree to which passenger aircraft have been modified to boost capacity to carry cargo .
In the video below, Cargo Facts editors Charles Kauffman and Jeff Lee discuss passenger-freighter developments during the week ending May 15.
Given that the use of passenger aircraft to carry cargo stems from the acute cargo capacity shortage, the conversation also touches on recent reactivations, and transactions involving large widebody freighters amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
In closing, the editors also offer a glimpse at what Cargo Facts will cover in the forthcoming week.
