Allied Air (4W, Lagos) will shortly introduce its first B737 freighter to its fleet. Former Our Airline (Nauru) B737-400(F) (MSN 24529) is currently being prepared for the Nigerian cargo carrier at Jacksonville Cecil Field, FL in Florida. Allied so far operates with a fleet of three B727-200(F) aircraft with an average age of over 26 years. Its latest fleet addition has been originally delivered to KLM Royal Dutch Airlines (KL, Amsterdam Schiphol) in passenger configuration in 1989.
