Hours, not days
AOG & aircraft parts
Aircraft parts, engines, landing gear, rotables and aerospace equipment where delay can stop an asset.
Focus: ready-time · route · component · aircraft availability
Specialist cargo lanes
Different cargo.
Different failure.
AOG, go-now recovery, pharma, outsize cargo, dangerous goods, emergency missions, industrial supply-chain freight and whole-aircraft moves do not fail for the same reason. We source the aircraft and operator around the actual constraint.

02

03

Cargo lanes
Where the mission changes the aircraft.
The lane is the starting point, not the answer. Final aircraft selection depends on the shipment, route, timing, airport, operator capability and written confirmation.
Go now
Urgent / go-now cargo
Production-critical parts, emergency supplies and time-sensitive freight where the next scheduled service cannot protect the deadline.
Focus: deadline · positioning · fastest practical routing
Cold chain
Pharma & life sciences
Biologics, vaccines, clinical-trial material and other temperature-sensitive cargo requiring appropriate packaging, handling and operator capability.
Focus: temperature range · validated shipper · handling · timing
Heavy & outsize
Heavy & outsize cargo
Industrial machinery, imaging systems, turbines and other dimensional freight where doors, floor loading and handling determine aircraft choice.
Focus: payload · dimensions · door · floor limits · handling
Regulated
Dangerous goods
Shipment-specific sourcing based on classification, packing, documentation, route and the proposed operator's ability to accept the cargo.
Focus: class · declaration · packing · permits · operator acceptance
Rapid response
Emergency & humanitarian
Disaster response, humanitarian relief and difficult destinations where the limiting factor may be the airfield, clearance or handling rather than the aircraft.
Focus: airfield · permits · clearance · handling · response time
Industrial supply chain
Industrial, automotive & energy
Production-critical components and project cargo when delay can disrupt a plant, field operation or supply chain.
Focus: production deadline · project constraints · recurring corridors
Dedicated lift
Full aircraft charter
Whole-aircraft moves when consolidation cannot satisfy schedule, cargo profile, confidentiality or payload requirements.
Focus: payload · route · timing · exclusivity
What changes by lane
We source from the constraint outward.
01 / CARGO
What is actually moving?
Commodity, dimensions, weight, packaging, temperature and any applicable classification determine the viable aircraft set.
02 / ROUTE
Can the mission land there?
Airport, runway, permits, handling, clearance and operating restrictions can narrow the answer before price does.
03 / TIME
When does it have to happen?
AOG and emergency cargo can eliminate otherwise suitable aircraft. Flexibility can open more options.
Aircraft fit
Capability categories, not a fixed fleet.
Massif 348 does not publish a fabricated inventory. The categories below describe the kinds of aircraft that may fit a mission when a relevant operator has availability.
Regional
Turboprop / specialty
Smaller loads, remote airports and regional missions where runway or payload matters.
Freighter
Narrow-body
Palletized cargo for regional and selected longer-haul requirements.
Freighter
Wide-body
Higher-volume, long-haul and heavier cargo where deck capacity and range fit.
Heavy
Oversize / industrial
Loads driven by dimensions, door access, floor loading and specialist handling.
Specialty
Mission-specific
Unusual routing, remote access or cargo characteristics requiring a tailored aircraft search.
Important
Confirmation required
Aircraft category does not equal live availability. Capacity and pricing remain indicative until confirmed in writing.
Need a specific lane?
Start with the mission, not the aircraft.
Tell the desk the origin, destination, cargo and ready-time. We will determine what information is needed to approach the right operators.
Charter desk
Ready time is the starting point.
FAQ
Questions before you request.
Do you operate the aircraft?
No. Massif 348 is an independent air cargo charter broker. Certificated operators perform the carriage under their own applicable authority and terms.
Can you handle more than one cargo category?
Yes. A single shipment can have overlapping requirements, such as AOG plus dangerous goods or pharma plus time-critical routing. The mission is assessed as a whole.
Do you guarantee a particular aircraft type?
No. Aircraft type depends on actual availability and the operator's acceptance of the specific mission.
What information should I provide?
Origin, destination, cargo description, weight, dimensions, ready-time and must-arrive timing are the best starting points. Add temperature or hazard information when relevant.
