The 767-300BCF is the market-preferred
solution for general and express cargo
markets and has more than 100 orders

Whaley of IBA adds: "There are
operators of Boeing 737-300, 737-400
and older 757-200 freighters which will
require replacement either now or in
the near future. The ASL Group, which
is the largest 737-800BCF/SF operator
with significant 737-300/400 freighter
operations, is in a fleet replacement
process with a number of the classics
having already been removed from ser-
vice. ASL has previously mentioned that
some of their 737-400s would remain in
service, should demand warrant it. ASL
is just an example of a host of opera-
tors doing the same thing. Then there
is, of course, the many start-ups which
have been established in the wake
of the pandemic peak for air freight
and e-commerce, these being the
riskier credits which were referred
to earlier."
