Chapman Freeborn successfully handles delivery of 11-ton switchboard

Global air charter experts Chapman Freeborn, a member of Avia Solutions Group, the world’s largest provider of ACMI services, has successfully executed the time-sensitive delivery of an 11-ton electrical switchboard.

The outsized cargo, which was transported via charter flight from Jakarta (CGK) to Sydney (SYD), arrived on schedule despite logistical and regulatory hurdles.

Chapman Freeborn’s APAC team was tasked with the urgent transportation of an 11-ton electrical switchboard that is essential for the client’s ongoing operations. The delivery was time-critical with a strict delivery deadline.

Chapman Freeborn’s Australia team organized the charter of an IL-76PS, a specialised heavy-lift cargo aircraft, which was originally developed to deliver heavy machinery to remote areas, for the delivery from Jakarta (CGK) to Sydney (SYD).

“Our experienced team navigated the regulatory complexities and handled the unexpected delays with determination and expertise. Their ability to precisely coordinate tasks, together with their tenacity, ensured this critical equipment arrived on schedule.

“This meant our client could continue the smooth running of their operations and avoid costly delays,” said Cohen Tarzia, business development manager.
