    The global aircraft charter specialist coordinated the movement of 87 tons of telecommunications equipment from Stockholm-Arlanda (ARN) to Dhaka (DAC) for the inaugural charter flight on behalf of its client Heavyweight Sweden AB.

    The B777F aircraft represents the most modern, efficient, and capable twin-engine freighter in the world and can carry large shipments of over 100 tons.

    Robert Jubb, a cargo charter specialist at Chapman Freeborn's UK office, said:

    "We are delighted to be the first company to successfully utilise Qatar's B777F aircraft. It was a successful charter operation and we expect this aircraft to be in high-demand in the future."
