History
Although a preparatory team for SF Airlines was founded in 2005, it wasn't until 2009 that he preparation was approved by the Civil Aviation Administration of China. A successful maiden flight was made on 31 December 2009.[3]
SF Airlines began its first flights, in 2010, to the plateau area of Yushu City, Qinghai carrying earthquake relief materials. Shortly after, a second Boeing 757-200F was put into operation.[4]
In 2011, SF Airlines became the first company in the industry to pass the CCAR-121-R4 for supplemental operations. They also flew their first Boeing 737-300F in 2011. SF Airlines passed the International Region Supplemental Operation Assessment and became qualified to operate international routes.[5]
In 2012, SF Airlines operated its first Boeing 737-400F.[6]

This agreement also included a Letter of Intent to acquire Boeing 737 Next Generation 800 based Boeing Converted Freighters for future fleet expansion and to replace existing B737 Classic aircraft.
