Aventure Aviation has acquired its 21st Boeing 737NG airframe. This 737-700 aircraft, MSN 30134, was delivered by Boeing to Canada's WestJet Airlines in 2001, and has been operated by WestJet its entire life.
The aircraft will be dismantled in Marana, Arizona, and harvested parts will be relocated to Aventure's Atlanta, Georgia headquarters.
“Finding quality assets has become even more challenging,” said Andrew Crombie, Aventure's director of product line. “There is a diminished supply of 737NG end-of-life airframes due to record passenger travel, and a supply chain that is unable to manufacture new aircraft to replace the aging global fleet.”
“With our vast network of partners in the airline and leasing space, we are able to acquire in-demand aircraft that will allow us to support our airline and cargo customers with critical 737NG inventory,” Crombie added.
Aventure is in active discussions with owners, financial institutions, lessors and airlines to find revenue-generating teardown solutions for idle aircraft.
