Historical Aviation Record

A dated record for context—not a claim of current operating authority.

Official public record

Kenya Gazette, 4 March 2011

The Kenya Gazette lists Tamarind Air Ltd., P.O. Box 56688-00200, Nairobi, as an applicant for non-scheduled all-cargo service out of and into Kenya to and from Africa using DC-9 aircraft based at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. The decision states that the licence was granted for one year with effect from 14 January 2011.

This is a historical decision. The stated one-year period is central to its interpretation, so the website does not call this a current licence and does not use the record to claim present-day flight availability.

Third-party historic fleet record

Planespotters' Tamarind Air profile, updated 7 May 2026, identifies Tamarind Air Ltd. as a Kenyan airline and lists two McDonnell Douglas DC-9-30 aircraft in the historic fleet. Its current fleet matrix shows zero aircraft in service, zero parked and zero total current aircraft.

Planespotters is a specialist aviation database rather than a regulator. Its data is therefore presented here as third-party historical context. A visitor who needs authoritative current aircraft information should use relevant official registry or regulatory sources.

Why this page avoids extrapolation

Historical records can be valuable, but they do not automatically describe a company's current business. The existence of a 2011 cargo licence does not establish that the company holds an equivalent licence today. A historic fleet entry does not establish present ownership or operational control of an aircraft. For that reason, current claims are intentionally limited to the contact and identity information supplied for this website.
