A dedicated charter organized by Chapman Freeborn delivered automotive parts to a German plant within eight hours of the initial request, after pallets were collected from a supplier and flown from Sofia Airport.

The rapid shipment was coordinated directly to the assembly site and was evaluated against options such as scheduled airfreight and road transport, with the customer comparing the charter cost to the potential $2.3 million per hour loss from a production stoppage; EV components in the load may also require additional dangerous‑goods handling.
