Alliance announces sale of first aircraft from European fleet purchase

Alliance announces that it has completed the first sale of a fully Australian certified Fokker 100 which was delivered in Perth late yesterday.

This project was managed by Alliance Engineering teams based in Bratislava, Brisbane and Perth.

This delivery is the first of three aircraft that Alliance is contracted to provide to Qantas Airways Limited subsidiary, QantasLink, which was announced by that airline in February 2016.

Speaking after the settlement, Alliance Managing Director Scott McMillan said “Alliance has again proven that it is able to manage and complete complex aircraft projects including the full refurbishment and Australian certification of European sourced aircraft”.

Mr McMillan also commented “This work undertaken jointly by ATB and Alliance reaffirms the strong relationship that has developed with ATB and the broader Austrian Airlines Group and highlights the significant combined experience both companies have with Fokker aircraft”.
