The aircraft procurement, leasing, financing and management sector is a multi-billion dollar per year industry. Both the aircraft leasing and aircraft financing industries have significantly evolved in the past 30+ years with manufacturers, financiers, aircraft lessors, airlines and private operators constantly looking for different sources of funding and alternate finance arrangements. As the economy shifts from strong cycles to weaker cycles (and vice-versa), these aircraft industry players are in continuous discussions to find innovative, yet fiscally responsible, leasing and financing methods.
