Aviation Capital Group Extends Business With Boeing
One of the world’s top aircraft lessors, Aviation Capital Group (ACG) and Boeing have finalised an order for thirteen 737 Max jets, bumping the former’s order book to 47 for the same aircraft family. Two variants of Boeing’s 737 Max jet comprise the new order – seven 737-8 and six 737-10. The 737-8 can seat up to 210 passengers and offer a range of 3,500 nautical miles. On the other hand, the 737-10, the largest model in the 737 family, can carry up to 230 people with a range of 3,100 nautical miles.
Founded in 1989 and presently a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tokyo Century Corporation, ACG has more than 480 aircraft in its fleet (managed plus committed) as of June-end, 2023. The company has leased aeroplanes to about 90 airlines in nearly 45 countries.
