CALC Delivers New A320 Aircraft To Sichuan Airlines

Airplane Is The 54th To Be Place By Chinese Leasing Company

China Aircraft Leasing Group Holdings Limited has completed the delivery of a new A320 aircraft to Sichuan Airlines at the facilities of Airbus in Tianjin, China, marking the 54th aircraft of CALC’s fleet.

CALC had completed the delivery of three A320 aircraft to Sichuan Airlines in 2015 according to the leasing agreements signed between CALC and Sichuan Airlines in August 2014. The first and second aircraft had been delivered in March and June 2015 respectively. The quick delivery of three new aircraft again demonstrates the Group’s flexible delivery capacity as supported by its close relationship with Airbus.

The aircraft is equipped with sharklets for fuel-efficiency enhancement. Rockwell Collins inflight entertainment system and advanced B/E catering equipment are also installed in the aircraft. CALC’s portfolio is made up of current generation Airbus and Boeing aircraft with an average age below 2.8 years. CALC is adopting an aggressive fleet expansion plan, expecting its fleet size to grow to 168 aircraft by 2022.
