Air Canada orders first in-house B767 P2F freighters

 .
Air Canada (AC, Montréal Trudeau) has reached a deal with Cargo Aircraft Management, a subsidiary of Air Transport Services Group, for the sale, conversion, and lease-back of two B767-300(ER)s. Redeliveries should take place by the end of the year.

The Canadian flag carrier said in November last year that it would leverage its large fleet of surplus B767s to further develop its in-house cargo operations. As such, the first two Boeing widebodies are expected to be inducted for conversion in March 2021. Upon redelivery, they will become Air Canada's first in-house dedicated freighters.
