Aergo Capital (Aergo) has completed the acquisition of a Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft from Aircastle. The aircraft, manufacturer serial number 60513, is currently on lease to Canadian airline WestJet.
Fred Browne, Chief Executive Officer of Aergo Capital, commented: “We are pleased to complete the acquisition of this Boeing 737 MAX 8 from Aircastle. I would like to thank both teams for their effective collaboration in delivering this transaction, and we look forward to working with Aircastle again in the future. I also extend my thanks to WestJet for their continued partnership and support.”
The transaction further strengthens Aergo’s narrow-body portfolio and is consistent with the company’s strategy of investing in highly sought-after, next-generation aircraft placed with leading airline operators.
