TP Aerospace has signed a new long-term cycle flat rate (CFR) agreement with Ukrainian cargo carrier Supernova Airlines (Supernova) to provide wheels and brakes support for the airline's upcoming Boeing 737NG freighter operations. The deal marks a significant milestone in Supernova's growth strategy and reinforces TP Aerospace's presence in Eastern Europe's aviation sector.
The agreement is already active, with services being delivered primarily from TP Aerospace's recently EASA-approved 10,000 m² flagship facility in Brno, Czech Republic. The Brno site, which received its final approval in December 2023, is a key hub for the company's European operations and will be instrumental in supporting Supernova's fleet requirements.
Supernova Airlines, part of the Nova Group, was founded in 2021 and began official operations after receiving its Ukrainian operator's certificate in early 2023. Currently, the airline operates within the EU from hubs in Riga and Warsaw. Igor Lazniuk, Technical Director at Supernova, highlighted the importance of the new agreement: “Their expertise and capabilities will be instrumental in ensuring the reliability and efficiency of our operations as we continue to grow.”
The CFR programme will ensure predictable maintenance costs and enhanced operational efficiency for Supernova's fleet, positioning both companies for continued success in the European cargo market.
