Airbus this week signed an agreement with Singapore-based ST Aerospace to offer passenger-to-freighter (P2F) conversion solutions for its A320 / A321 aircraft.
Airbus foresees a significant market demand of more than 600 aircraft over the next 20 years for P2F aircraft conversions in the small freighter segment.
The A320P2F, with eleven main-deck container positions, will be capable of carrying 21 metric tonnes of payload over 2 100nm, while the A321P2F with 14 main-deck positions will be able to carry up to 27 tonnes over 1 900nm. The first converted A321P2F will be delivered in 2018.
