Tanzania’s Air Excel resumes Let410 operations

Air Excel (XLL, Arusha) has announced that it has resumed using its only Let 410UVP-E20 for charter operations within Tanzania and to entry points in Kenya‚ Uganda, and Rwanda.

5H-AES (msn 871811), a 1996 build turboprop, can seat up to 19 passengers, although the carrier said that when operating to some airports, such as Kogatende, Lamai, Lobo, Mahale, and Katavi it will be restricted to a smaller number of passengers and limited cargo.

Besides the Let Kunovice turboprop, Air Excel says on its website that it also operates nine Cessna (single turboprop) C208B Grand Caravans (eight seating up to 13 passengers each and one in an executive configuration for up to nine passengers). Air Excel uses the Cessna Aircraft Company turboprops to run scheduled and charter domestic flights within Tanzania.
