EFW signs LoI with Guangdong Aerocity for A320P2F conversion

Elbe Flugzeugwerke (EFW) has entered into a Letter of Intent (LOI) with Guangdong Aerocity (GDA) for a potential order of 10 A320 Passenger-to-Freighter (P2F) conversions to be carried out by EFW for the latter. The LOI has a validity period till the end of 2018. It was signed just a day after EFW announced it has secured a launch contract for an order of 10 A321P2F conversions at Singapore Airshow 2018. Dr Andreas Sperl, CEO of EFW said, “Similar to the A321P2F solution, A320P2F offers unique features such as both upper- and lower-deck containerised loading which make them an attractive option in the narrowbody freighter segment. We hope to secure a firm order before long from Guangdong Aerocity, whom we look forward to supporting together with our parent company, ST Aerospace and its global network of maintenance facilities.”
