B737 Classic Freighter Conversion Values Stable
The values of B737 Classic freighters are increasingly showing an element of disconnect with those of the passenger examples. Traditionally, the values of freighters were closely tied to the value of passenger units until such time as forty percent of the passenger fleet had been converted. The value of the…

A Great Time to be a Turboprop Lessor
If there was ever a time to be a lessor of turboprops this is it. Lease rentals of the more modern turboprops – including those built in the 1980s – are in demand from a wide range of operators. The market for the turboprop operating lease continues to expand as…

Aircraft Asset Assessment: B747-8I
Market Presence. The development of the B747-8I improves the operating economics of the type. Airbus indicates that the A380 currently offers a 15-20 percent efficiency improvement over the B747-400. The larger -8I makes the differential much more marginal. Indeed Boeing cites that the trip cost of the -8I over the…

Storage & Scrapping Starts to Impact B767-300ERs
The values – and lease rentals – of the B767-300ER are showing levels more commensurate with the age profile after having been artificially suspended for so long due to the late arrival of the B787. The first B767-300ERs entered service in February 1988 with American Airlines. The other types that…

Aircraft Asset Assessment: B737-400
Market Presence. The B737-400 is clearly showing its age in terms of efficiency, specification and market orientation. Structure and systems can be traced back to the 1960s, if not before, while performance and capacity reflect the 1980s. However, partly perhaps because of its heritage, the structure remains reasonably robust and…

B737-900ER Values Lag Behind A321-200
The values of the -900ER continue to lag behind those of the A321-200 but the association with the B737-800 and an orderbook exceeding 500 prevents weakness. While Airbus cannot keep up with demand for the A321-200, the same cannot be said of the B737-900ER. In the first four months of…
