AEI to Provide 5th B7337-800SF to Aviation Holdings III Investments, LLC

Aeronautical Engineers, Inc. (AEI) is pleased to announce the company has entered an agreement to provide Aviation Holdings III Investments, LLC, with its fifth B737-800SF freighter conversion. The aircraft (MSN: TBD) is scheduled to commence modification in April 2021. Modification touch labor and maintenance will be performed by the authorized AEI Conversion Center, Commercial Jet, in Miami, Florida.

The AEI converted B737-800SF freighter offers a main deck payload of up to 52,700 lbs. (23,904 kg) and incorporates eleven full height 88” x 125” container positions, plus an additional position for an AEP/AEH. The conversion also incorporates new floor beams aft of the wing box, a large 86” x 137” Main Cargo Door with a single vent door system.

AEI’s forward-thinking design allows for containers to be loaded into the aircraft a full 16.5” aft of the forward door jamb, ensuring ground operators have sufficient maneuvering room which minimizes potential door and aircraft strikes. Additionally, the AEI B737-800SF includes a flexible Ancra Cargo Loading System, a rigid 9g barrier, five supernumerary seats as standard, a galley, and full lavatory.

When combined with proven reliability, the AEI converted B737-800SF will allow Aviation Holdings III Investments, LLC to keep their aircraft in the air, generating revenue.
