Toulouse,France, 29th May 2025:
Liebherr-Aerospace has announced its participation for the first time in Air Cargo Europe From June 2 to 5, 2025. This event is marked as one of the most important exhibition and conference for the global air cargo industry. Liebherr team will showcase at booth no. 278 the Class F Cargo Conversion,a quick solution to convert passenger to freighter cargo aircraft that has been developed and certified by LHColus Technologia Ltda in São José dos Campos (Brazil).Liebherr is responsible for the global distribution of the kit, excluding Brazil, through its worldwide customer services network, whichprovides sales and technical support.
The Class F Cargo Conversion is implemented by means of a simple, fast, and fully reversible modification ofthe aircraft cabin. The ground time required to convert the aircraft in either direction is just a small fraction of a classic cargo conversion of a narrow-body aircraft.
After its certification by ANAC, the Brazilian National Civil Aviation Agency, the solution’s efficiency and reliability had been field-proven with a sizeable Embraer E190 fleet operating for over two years in Latin America. More than 20,000 flight hours have been already accumulated and over 16 million packages equivalent to 35,000 tons of payload have been transported. The solution is currently being certifiedby the FAA, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, for Embraer E190 aircraft and can be extended to other single aisle aircraft types.
“We are excited about our participation in Air Cargo Europe 2025 to showcase such an easy, fully reversible and cost-effective solution and discuss upcoming business opportunities”, commented Joël Cadaux, Director Business and Services of Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS.
