Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), a global reference in aircraft passenger-to-freighter (P2F) conversions, announced today following rigorous efforts over the past year, a landmark achievement in aviation history with the successful completion of the B-777/300ERSF conversion from a passenger aircraft into a freighter, and the receipt of the industry’s first Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) certificate from both the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Civil Aviation Authority of Israel (CAAI). 

As one of the world's largest cargo aircraft, the newly certified B-777/300ERSF will significantly increase global shipping capacity, speed and efficiency. This is a significant breakthrough in aviation and IAI is the first company in the world to convert an aircraft of this magnitude.

AerCap is the launch customer of the B-777/300ERSF conversion program, while Kalitta will serve as the launch operator.
