[HD video below] MASkargo, the freight subsidiary of Malaysia
Airlines, has become a new operator of the Airbus A330-200F,
following the delivery of the first of four PW4000-powered
aircraft ordered by the airline.
The A330-200F can carry 70 tonnes
of payload, with a range capability of up to 4,000nm.
For MASkargo,
the aircraft’s performance and flexibility will enable direct
freight services from its Kuala Lumpur base to destinations across
Asia, with onward capability to Australasia, Europe or the US.
“The A330-200F will bring new levels of efficiency to
MASkargo’s medium lift operations,” said Shahari Sulaiman,
Managing Director MASkargo. “With this aircraft we will be able to
serve more markets with greater frequency, while significantly
reducing our operating costs and maximising profit potential.”
The A330-200F is the
all-freight version of the A330 Family. To date,
Airbus has won more than 1,100 orders for the various versions of
the A330, with some 800 aircraft currently flying with over 90
operators worldwide.
