Skyworld Aviation has placed an ERJ 145 LR aircraft with Mwant Jet, of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Serial number 145601, with temporary registration 2-TEZK, set off on its ferry flight from the U.K. on August 7, and arrived in Kinshasa later that evening. The aircraft will bear the registration 9Q-AYS once accepted in DRC.
This is Mwant Jet's first ERJ 145 aircraft which will operate on mining contract and charter services, as well as scheduled services. The airline already operates a Hawker 850 XP on special flights.
