The Management of Air Peace has announced the arrival of another ERJ-145 which went for C-Check before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mr Stanley Olisa, spokesman for Air Peace, confirmed the development in a statement in Lagos on Tuesday.

Olisa explained that the aircraft, with registration number 5N-BVD, arrived Lagos on Monday night.

“Most of our aircraft were out on C-Check during the COVID-19 pandemic, but they have started arriving one after the other”, the airline declared. Two more aircraft are being expected to join the airline fleet from C- Check next week.





The airline three weeks ago received a new acquisition bringing the present number of Embraer ERJ-145 in its fleet to 8.

The ERJ-145 aircraft represents one of the 13 of the model that the airline ordered.

Interestingly, this is happening at a time that major players in the global aviation industry are declaring bankruptcy or facing liquidation.

Recall that in April 2019, Air Peace airline placed a record order for 10 brand Embraer 195-E2 planes. This would be the first in Africa.

The order comprises purchase rights for another 20 E195-E2 jets. The request has 124-seater jet in dual-class and 146-seater jet in single class configurations.

The deal was unveiled during Embraer Business Meeting with the aviation world in Port Louis, Mauritius.





This made the Nigerian firm the first to order the brand of jets on the continent. It also marked the official launch customer of the brand in this part of the globe.

Air Peace is a private Nigerian airline that was founded in 2013. The airline has its head office in Lagos State, Nigeria. Air Peace provides passenger and charter services.
