Apollo Aviation Group (Apollo Aviation) and Sciens Capital Management LLC jointly announced that Apollo Aviation raised approximately $595m from a broad array of investors for its second aviation fund, Sciens Aviation Special Opportunities Investment Fund II (SASOF II). SASOF II is managed by Apollo Aviation, a full service commercial aircraft asset manager jointly owned by its founders and principals, William Hoffman and Robert Korn, and by an affiliate of Sciens Capital Management LLC. SASOF II is a follow-on fund to the $213 million Sciens Aviation Special Opportunities Investment Fund (SASOF), which was raised in 2010. “SASOF II will seek to acquire mid-life commercial aircraft for lease and/or immediate disassembly and resale of the systems, components and parts” said Mr. Hoffman, Apollo Aviation’s Chairman. As of today, SASOF II has acquired 12 commercial aircraft and three engines including Boeing 737 NG, Airbus A320 CEO and A340 aircraft models.
