Clan Gatherings: The Oshkosh factor
Cathay Pacific steals the show at EAA Airventure Oshkosh
01 Jul 2016

Cathay Cargo’s US team took a coachload of the business’ Midwest customers to the EAA Airventure event at Oshkosh in Wisconsin to give them a day at one of the world’s biggest aviation events. As well as walking around the exhibits and being wowed by the flying displays, guests were also given an exclusive tour of B-LJA, Cathay Pacific’s Boeing 747-8F in the distinctive Hong Kong Trader livery. This included a look at the main deck, a trip up to the cockpit and the chance to meet with the flight crew who fly their shipments.
