Samaritan's Purse (NSP, Boone, NC) has purchased a B767-300F from AFG Aviation Ireland, the lessor announced.
The aircraft, N367SP (msn 33510), was already introduced into Samaritan’s Purse’s fleet in February 2025. It is the first of the type for the US-based evangelical Christian organisation. It will replace the 56.5-year-old DC-8-72(CF), which the operator plans to retire in late 2025.
