Start-up Cally Air takes delivery of 1st aircraft

Nigerian start-up Cally Air is gearing up for launch after it has taken delivery of its first aircraft. The B737-300, registered 5N-BYR (29266) arrived at Lagos on 6 April. A second B737-300, 5N-BYQ (30334) is due to follow soon and is currently being prepared at Ostrava.

Cally Air is a joint-venture between the Nigerian state of Cross River and carrier Dana Air. The aircraft itself, however, will be operated by Aero Contractors. The airline will connect Calabar with Abuja, Lagos, Obudu and Port Harcourt.
