DRC's flyCAA takes delivery of first widebody, an A330
flyCAA (BU, Kinshasa N'Djili) took delivery of 9S-PSJ (msn 505) on January 13 marking the privately-owned carrier's entry into the widebody market.
At 18 years old and on lease from Carlyle Aviation Partners, the A330-200 will be deployed on trunk domestic routes connecting Kinshasa N'Djili with Lubumbashi and other major settlements throughout the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). As previously noted, flyCAA has denied any plans to use the aircraft in starting longhaul flights to Brussels National.
