Mammoth Freighters

Fortress portfolio companies Mammoth Freighters and Aspire MRO have made significant progress over the past 18 months. The companies’ teams have now completed the installation on a fifth Boeing 777 of a new cargo door – the world’s largest side cargo door – marking another key milestone in the modification of 777 aircraft from passenger to freight carriers. At facilities located in Fort Worth, TX, and Manchester, UK, Mammoth and Aspire currently have seven aircraft at various stages of modification.
