Three Boeing 737s Ferried From Jordan to Kazakhstan in a Single Day, Raising Questions Over Their Final Destination. Will that be Iran?
Three Boeing 737 aircraft were ferried from Amman (ADJ) , Jordan, to Taraz, Kazakhstan, on 28 July 2026, in what appears to be a highly unusual sequence of flights. The coordinated transfers have sparked speculation that the aircraft could ultimately be destined for Iran, following a pattern seen in previous aircraft movements.
The first aircraft, C9-MAJ, departed Amman (ADJ) at 11:35 UTC. Approximately one hour later, at around 12:40 UTC, a Boeing 737-300 registered as C9-DBA departed for Taraz. The third aircraft, another Boeing 737-300 carrying the registration C9-BCE, followed at approximately 13:20 UTC.
All three aircraft now carry registrations beginning with the C9 prefix, which is allocated to Mozambique.
Familiar Pattern
The flights resemble previous aircraft transfers that ultimately resulted in aircraft reaching Iran after first being re-registered in Mozambique.
Earlier, two former American Airlines MD-83 aircraft were ferried to Maputo, Mozambique, before continuing to Iran several weeks later. A similar route was followed by two former Peace Air Boeing 737s, which also received Mozambican registrations before leaving the country.
While there is currently no evidence that the three Boeing 737s flown to Kazakhstan on 28 July will also continue to Iran, the sequence of events closely resembles earlier transfers that have attracted attention from aviation observers.
Identity of C9-MAJ
Aircraft C9-MAJ is believed to be the former C5-MAJ (manufacturer serial number 28566), a Boeing 737-300 previously operated by Mid Africa Aviation. Before that, the aircraft flew for Tarco Air in Sudan.
The aircraft had been parked in Amman since 20 July 2025 before departing for Kazakhstan.
Interestingly, the new registration appears to follow the same naming convention observed on the former Peace Air aircraft, where the Mozambican registration retained elements of the aircraft’s previous Nigerian registration.
One of the others could be former C5-AAN. A Boeing 737-500 which was owned by Mid Africa Aviation and stored at Amman (AMM) since 2017. The other could be C5-MAB also of Mid Africa Aviation. Stored at ADJ since 11 Nov 2025.
Aerovision FZ
One of the aircraft, C9-DBA, is registered to Aerovision FZ, a company based in the United Arab Emirates.
Very little information is publicly available about the company. Apart from its own website, there appears to be virtually no public corporate information, aviation activity, or business profile. Such a limited public footprint is unusual for a company listed as the owner of multiple commercial aircraft and may warrant further scrutiny.
At present, neither the purpose of the transfers nor the intended long-term destination of the three Boeing 737s has been publicly disclosed.
