Sep 06, 2018 (newstodate): Already established as the world's largest regional aircraft lessor, the Danish company Nordic Aviation Capital has again increased its portfolio of regional aircraft.
The latest move comprises the acquisition through an agreement with BeauTech Power Systems of 25 Embraer E190 aircraft operated by Air Canada.
This will bring NAC's total fleet to 451 aircraft to which should be added another 11 aircraft managed for other partners.
Besides, NAC also holds purchase commitments for another 84, bringing the total count to 546 aircraft.
The 25 new Air Canada aircraft are currently flying on short-term leases expiring over the next 18 months.
Starting out in the regional turboprop aircraft market, Nordic Aviation Capital first added jet capabilities with the acquisition of Jetscape Aviation Group in March 2016.
The deal brought 28 Jetscape-owned Embraer E-Jets including 16 E190, nine E175, one E170 and two E195 aircraft, commitments for 11 E-Jets and a further 18 of the type under management into NAC's regional turboprop aircraft portfolio that already comprised over 275 aircraft.
