Amazing Kalita Cargo airline
Kalitta Air is a Michigan Limited Liability Company owned solely by Conrad Kalitta. Kalitta Air began service in November 2000 with three Boeing 747 aircraft and the fleet has grown to over twenty five planes, comprised of 777 freighters and B747-400 freighters. Capable of air express delivery of virtually any type of freight, the company provides scheduled or on-demand charter service for customers in the United States and around the world.
In 1967, Conrad "Connie" Kalitta started the airline as Connie Kalitta Services,[5] a business carrying car parts using a twin engine Cessna 310 that he piloted. The airline's name would later become American International Airways in 1984. At this point, the fleet consisted of Boeing 747, Lockheed L-1011, Douglas DC-8, Twin Beech, and Learjet aircraft, for air freight, air ambulance, and charter passenger operations. During the late 1980s, the Kalitta brand name continued to appear on many of the company's cargo aircraft. In 1990 and 1991, AIA flew 600 missions in support of Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm.
The airline provides domestic and international scheduled or on-demand cargo service and support for the requirements of the Department of Defense Air Mobility Command.[10][11]

The Delta Air Lines Fleet Consists Of 955 Aircraft
The Delta Air Lines fleet consists of 955 aircraft, making it the second largest airline by fleet size in the world, behind American Airlines. Delta Air Lines operates a fleet manufactured by Airbus and Boeing. Delta operates the world's largest fleets of the Airbus A220, Boeing 717, and Boeing 757, the largest passenger fleet of the Boeing 767, and the largest Airbus A330 fleet of any US airline.
Delta historically has preferred purchasing or leasing used aircraft or use older generation models to keep initial acquisition costs down and then keep those aircraft flying for a longer time than its competitors. To support this business model, Delta has also invested in an extensive MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) organization, called TechOps. However, Delta has acquired lower priced new aircraft as airframers move towards their next generation designs and offered discounts on slower selling models. As a result, as of 2023, Delta flies the second-oldest fleet among the legacy carriers, and the average fleet age has been reduced to 14.8 years. Prior to its 2008 merger with Northwest Airlines, Delta's fleet was made up of solely Boeing and McDonnell Douglas aircraft. Airbus aircraft from Northwest joined the fleet after the merger, and more have since been added.
