AWAS has signed a formal agreement with aircraft manufacturer Airbus, to become one of the first lessors to be able to offer its customer airlines the significant fuel savings of aircraft fitted with factory-build Sharklets. The advanced end-of-wing Sharklet system has been developed by Airbus to save airlines up to $270k on fuel per aircraft each year along with several higher performance and lower maintenance benefits. Importantly, Sharklets can also save over 730t less CO2 emissions annually per aircraft.
