Airstream arranges sale of five B737-500’s

Airstream International Group has arranged the sale of five B737-500 aircraft. The aircraft have been acquired from Royal Air Maroc by Vx Capital Partners, a US based private investment firm. The aircraft, msn 25317, 26525, 26527, 27679 and 27680 were the last five remaining B737-500’s in the RAM fleet being remarketed by Airstream.

Airstream has had a very successful start to 2013 having concluded the sale of nine aircraft since the start of the year.
