AerFin, the aviation asset specialist, has announced the acquisition of six A330-200 aircraft powered by PW4168 engines, featuring enhanced landing gear. These aircraft were previously in operation within the Asia-Pacific region.
The engines will contribute to AerFin’s expanding portfolio of PW4000 engines, while components and major assets from the A330 airframes will bolster its wide-body market inventory. This acquisition will further supplement AerFin’s A320 material base and provide a reliable, ongoing supply of high-quality parts to support its growing A330 customer base.
Commenting on the acquisition, Auvinash Narayen, Chief Investment Officer, stated: “Our ability to work successfully as a trusted partner to the owner of these six A330s, their airline customer, and the many other project stakeholders is another clear demonstration of AerFin’s technical and operational expertise. We continue to confidently execute more complex sub-fleet exit opportunities globally in a highly competitive origination environment.”
This transaction coincides with the formal opening of AerFin’s Singapore office.
Paul Ashcroft, Senior Vice President for the Asia Pacific region, added: “With over one thousand A330s still in service, many of which operate in Asia, it is fantastic to see AerFin leading the way in securing the materials our customers need to support their fleets safely, reliably, and economically as the global fleet ages. We consistently provide high-quality used service material, and the traceability of components from these A330s, delivered by a well-established APAC operator, offers the confidence our APAC and global customers expect when assessing the quality of our product offerings.”
