Logistics Plus (LP) AERO Ltd (UK), in collaboration with Logistics Plus France and Logistics Plus, Inc. (US), successfully organized the air transportation of a GEnx-1B aircraft engine from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), USA, to Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO), Kenya.
The Logistics Plus team handled a coordinated pickup and trucking from the engine’s manufacturer to the New York (JFK) airport. A 23-ton forklift had to be specially arranged for safe engine unloading, and then the cargo was transshipped at a European hub. Throughout the process, LP AERO staff were on site for end-to-end oversight of all critical stages, including loading, transfer, and unloading.
The GEnx-1B is the largest aircraft engine that a Boeing 747F can transport, making this project an example of the precise planning and expert execution required by the LP AERO team.
