Air Contractors (Ireland) Limited is a freight airline based in Dublin, Ireland. It operates scheduled freight services on behalf of FedEx Feeder as its European partner through its largest hub at Dublin, and its Central European Hub at Paris-Charles de Gaulle.
The airline was established and started operations in 1972, as AirBridge Carriers at East Midlands. The name Hunting Cargo Airlines was adopted in September 1992 and then changed to Air Contractors, following the acquisition of the airline by Compagnie Maritime Belge (51%) and Safair (49%) in June 1998. It has expanded as a group to include aircraft leasing (ACL Aviation Support and Aircraft Trading both based in Southend, UK) and maintenance (Air Contractors Engineering, previously called Aeroscot, Edinburgh, UK).
Air Contractors acquired French carrier Europe Airpost in March 2008. Following the acquisition of EAP into the ACL group of companies, the group was rebranded ASL Aviation Group. Other ASL Aviation Group companies include the airline Europe Airpost in Paris, aircraft spares distributor ACL Aviation Support (ACLAS), and Air Contractors Engineering (ACE), the aircraft heavy engineering operation based in Edinburgh, Scotland.
