DAS Air Cargo

DAS Air Cargo is an African cargo airline company. Formed in 1983 in Ghana, the airline started providing jet cargo services almost immediately.

Das Air Cargo uses McDonnell Douglas DC-8 and DC-10 planes. Although the DC-8s have all been phased out for civilian passenger service, they are still allowed to carry cargo by international transportation authorities.

In 1990, the DAS Air Cargo USA division was opened to operate cargo operations in that country for the airline. The division is based in Miami, Florida, and shares its offices with DAS Air Cargo's main business partner, passenger charter airline First Choice Airways.

Apart from Air 2000, DAS Air Cargo has been able to form partnerships with such other airlines as Virgin Atlantic, Avianca, Aerolineas Argentinas, Cargolux, ANA and many others, and has had a few model airplanes produced by Schabak.
