AAR Cargo Systems has received Supplemental Type Certificates (STC) from the FAA and EASA, approving the company’s cargo handling system for the 767-300 airframe. AAR was selected by IAI’s Bedek Aviation Group (IAI) to design the cargo system for the launch of its 767- 300 conversion programme.

IAI installed the AAR cargo system to convert a 767-300 from passenger configuration into a modern and efficient General Market Freighter (GMF) configuration. The system was manufactured at AAR Cargo Systems facility in Goldsboro, North Carolina.

In 2002, AAR worked closely with IAI to develop the first after market cargo handling system for the 767-200. AAR now holds STCs with IAI for both the 767-200 and 767-300. AAR also holds an STC with Boeing/Aeronavali for 767-200 cargo systems and is the only company in the industry to hold STCs with both companies for these aircraft conversions.
