Air Lease Corporation sells ATR fleet to Nordic Aviation Capital

Air Lease Corporation has sold 25 ATR aircraft in its fleet to Nordic Aviation Capital A/S. These ATR aircraft have served ALC well in meeting the demand from airline customers operating shorter sector lengths. As the business has matured, ALC has focused more on its mainline jet aircraft operations with these turboprop aircraft now accounting for less than 5% of the current fleet. NAC is a global leader specializing in meeting the needs of ATR turboprop operators and this transaction adds further scale to their business. ALC anticipates that a majority of aircraft transfers will occur during the first half of 2016.
