Successful OBC Mission: an AOG Part Delivered from Toulouse to Tianjin in Record Time
When an aircraft is grounded (AOG), every minute counts. Recently, our team launched an On Board Courier (Hand Carry) operation in under 30 minutes to deliver a critical spare part from Toulouse to Tianjin, China.
Hand-Delivered, Without Unnecessary Delay
Carried in the cabin by our courier, the part was hand-delivered upon arrival, allowing the aircraft to be quickly returned to service and avoiding major downtime costs for the operator concerned.
It is precisely in this type of situation that the strength of a reactive broker shows: reactivity, reliability and full commitment to urgent operations worldwide.
Why Speed of Activation Is Critical in an OBC Mission
An OBC mission is not just about booking a plane ticket. It requires immediate selection of the fastest flight, an available courier with no delay, and flawless coordination through to final hand-delivery of the part. Those few minutes saved upfront make all the difference to the final cost of AOG downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions About On Board Courier (OBC) Missions
What is an On Board Courier (OBC) mission?
An OBC, or Hand Carry mission, involves transporting a critical part or package in the cabin, personally accompanied by a courier, on a commercial or dedicated flight, in order to guarantee the fastest possible delivery.
What does AOG mean?
AOG (Aircraft On Ground) refers to an aircraft grounded while awaiting a part or repair. Every hour of downtime represents a major operational cost for the airline or operator concerned.
Why choose OBC transport over standard freight for an AOG part?
Standard freight involves handling, customs and final delivery delays that an OBC mission bypasses, as the part is hand-carried by a courier all the way to direct delivery on site.
How quickly can an OBC mission be launched?
At Dynami Aviation OPS, an OBC operation can be launched in under 30 minutes when the situation requires it, with immediate selection of the flight and available courier.
What types of parts are typically transported via OBC?
Critical spare parts, sensitive electronic components, urgent documents or high-value samples are the most commonly transported cargo in OBC mode, due to their criticality and size compatible with cabin transport.
Does Dynami Aviation OPS organize international OBC missions?
Yes. Our team organizes OBC missions to numerous international destinations, with 24/7 reactivity to respond to AOG emergencies anywhere in the world.
