Atlas Air Service completes King Air sale and delivery to Brazil
A refurbished King Air C90A was sold, exported and flown to Brazil after modifications and long-term maintenance support at Augsburg Air Service.
The aircraft completed a 15,000-kilometre ferry flight over three days before reaching its new owner in Brazil.

Atlas Air Service AG has completed the sale of a Beechcraft King Air C90A to a customer in Brazil, overseeing the full transaction from marketing through to export and delivery.

Acting as exclusive broker, the German business aviation specialist managed the process on behalf of the aircraft’s owner, concluding with handover at Augsburg Air Service. The subsidiary, where the aircraft had been maintained for years, also carried out key upgrades including Blackhawk engines and the Raisbeck performance enhancement system to improve take-off and landing capability.

The aircraft completed a 37-hour ferry flight spanning 15,000 kilometres across three days before arriving in Boa Vista. The new owner says: “The aircraft is perfect. I am really grateful for Atlas's support; it really made the difference.”

Atlas Air Service, the first IADA-accredited dealer in continental Europe, has built a track record in international aircraft transactions, placing more than 150 pre-owned aircraft over the past decade for private owners, mid-sized companies and large corporates.
