Boeing 777-200 freighter joins fleet of Qatar Airways Cargo



Qatar Airways Cargo has been delivered another Boeing 777-200 freighter – Boeing’s second 777 cargo aircraft delivery. It began commercial operations on April 16, a company release stated. The airline has been expanding its 777-200F fleet over recent years and with the new delivery, QAC operates 28 such aircraft.  The carrier has also placed an order for 34 of Boeing’s new 777-8F, with options on 16 more. The delivery comes after Boeing was unable to deliver any 777 freighters in the first quarter of the year, although 11 of the aircraft were reported to have been built and were awaiting engines. The latest freighter (A7-BTB) travelled from Boeing’s production site in Everett on April 14. So far, the aircraft has been utilised on services to India and Europe, with flights to Mumbai, Delhi and Amsterdam under its belt.
