Arriving into Hamilton last night was yet another Boeing 737-800 freighter for Texel Air's Australasian operations. Boeing 737-8FH(WLH) was delivered to UK airline XL Airways as G-XLAK in January 2007. It then saw service in Turkey from December 2008 with AnadoluJet as TC-JHI and from January 2013 with Sun Express as TC-SAH. In June 2019 it went to Airzena Georgian Airways as 4L-TGC and then to Aircompany Armenia as EK-73792 in November 2021 and it was operated by them until May 2022. It received an Austrian registration OK-SBK with Alterna Capital Partners in June 2022 and was stored in Prague until July 2023 when it was purchased by Chisholm Enterprises it who registered it as N736CE and who flew it to Guangzhou for freighter conversion.
In the early hours of the 24th of May 2024 it departed Guangzhou for Hamilton flying via Port Moresby and Auckland, arriving in Hamilton about 7.30pm. It seems the aircraft is destined for Australian operations. It was registered to Texel Air Ltd, Auckland, as ZK-TXD on 5 June 2024.
