The first of the six "Boeing-737 MAX 8" aircrafts will be delivered from the United States to Kazakhstan in March 2018, the countries agreed during the official visit of President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev to the United States.

Thus, speaking of commercial aircraft trading, it should be noted that "SCAT Airlines" ordered six "Boeing-737 MAX 8" aircrafts.

"Taking into account the planned delivery of the first aircraft in March 2018, these aircraft will be the first models of the "737 MAX" owned and operated in Kazakhstan and Central Asia, expanding the regional and international network of "SCAT", noted the sides.

In addition, according to the Akorda press-service, the national airline of Kazakhstan "Air Astana" has confirmed its commitment, in accordance with the terms of the existing contract, to purchase three "787 Dreamliner" aircrafts with scheduled delivery in 2021.

We note, following the talks between the Heads of Kazakhstan and the United States, a number of commercial contracts and documents were signed in the White House.
