Trast Aero was founded in 2004 and was active till 2010, when its assets were taken over by Aquiline International based in Sharja (UAE). In 2014, 4L-UCK was converted to AN-26B and registered as EY-325. It was observed falling apart at Sentani airport in 2022.

In August of 2025, Trigana operated three B737 freighters to supply Wamena, the biggest city in the world only accessible by air and therefore completely depending on an air bridge. Each aircraft does 3 to 4 daily runs, each time carrying a load of some 15 metric tons.

PK-YSG joined the fleet of Trigana Air in August 2014, only some 3 month before this picture was taken. The 1988 built passenger airframe was operated by airlines like Piedmont (N357P & N585US), USAir and US Airways (both as N585US), before it got converted into a freighter for TNT Airways in August 2006 (registered OO-TNH).

NAM Air (part of Sriwijaya Air) started as low-cost carrier in December 2013. At its peak, NAM Air operated eleven Boeing 737-500's, but is now down to just three at the time of upload. Since August 2025, mother company Sriwijaya Air offers direct flights from Makassar (Sulawesi) to Wamena (Papua), with a fuel stop in Timika on the way back. The new and revolutionary flight connection is contracted to NAM Air and 1994 built PK-NAS is seen here on one of it's first such flight.

HR-1301 pictured here prior lifting off from the Cengkareng Heliport was built in March 2016 and immediately delivered to the Indonesian Air Force, which assigned it to the national SAR unit "BASARNAS", itself part of Wing 4 based at Bogor / Atang Senjaya AFB (WIAJ). In addition, BASARNAS also operates five AS-365N3 Dauphin helicopters in the same overall orange paint scheme. For some unknown reason, only one AW139 was ordered so HR-1301 remains the sole of it's type in TNI-AU / BASARNAS service. Not visible on this picture is the rescue hoist installed on the RH side of the fuselage.
