There was only one aircraft that could transport the cargo from South America on time and within budget.

Flying a heavy tooling basket to an oil production plant in Mexico

A freight forwarder asked us to assist with the urgent transportation of a large tool from South America to an oil well in Mexico. The tooling basket weighed five tonnes, so we needed an aircraft that could move heavy and outsized cargo, as well as making sure the right equipment was in place to handle the consignment on the ground.

Our Solution

Route: Guyana > Mexico City

Aircraft: Antonov An-12

We immediately knew an Antonov An-12 would be the best aircraft for the job, as it could transport the cargo within the required timeframe and was within the client’s budget.

Reaching out to our operator contacts, we sourced an An-12 in double-quick time, before working with the airline to expedite permits.

The charter ran smoothly from start to finish, with a heavy-duty forklift used to load and unload the cargo in each destination.

The Finer Details

Rapid Response: We came up with an ideal charter solution within 20 minutes of receiving this request and secured permits within 24 hours.
