Airvan 10 from Mahindra Aerospace for Botswana

Issue: 5 / 2018

End August, 2018, Mahindra Aerospace signed with Botswana’s Major Blue Air Ltd as its first worldwide customer for its FAA certified 10-seater turboprop aircraft, the Airvan 10. This is to further strengthen the importance Mahindra Aerospace assigns to Botswana, a very important and successful Mahindra Aerospace Airvan 8 market. To experience the wide and panoramic beauty of Botswana or travel inland, the Airvan is the most suitable aircraft for Botswana’s tourism industry and is the Airvan’s largest single airport operation. The Airvan 10 is an ideal upgrade for most operators who need added seating capacity and looking for more cost effective solution against other alternatives. Mahindra Aerospace, therefore, wanted to bring its first Airvan 10 to a city/country which connects well with the Airvan family. Major Blue Air, having experienced a wonderful return on its existing Airvan fleet, wanted to upgrade and chose to be the first worldwide customer of Airvan 10.
