Air Lease Corporation Orders 7 Additional ATR 72-600s

Has Ordered 28 ATR Aircraft Since 2010

European turboprop manufacturer ATR and the leasing company Air Lease Corporation have signed an agreement for the purchase of seven additional ATR 72-600s. Air Lease Corporation (ALC) has purchased ATRs every year since its first contract at Farnborough in 2010. With this agreement, ALC now has 28 ATR 72-600s in its portfolio.

ATRs are currently operated by over 180 carriers worldwide thanks to their high reliability, comfort, and low operating costs for airlines. Steven Udvar-Házy, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Air Lease Corporation, stated, "We are experiencing success placing our ATR 72-600s with operators expanding regional air connectivity and short segment routes all over the world. With its compelling operating costs and modern cabin interior designs, we believe demand for this aircraft will continue to increase.”

“Today's deal further underlines the appeal of the newest ATR '-600s' for the leasing firm community,” said Patrick de Castelbajac, Chief Executive Officer of ATR. “We are honored that such a successful company as Air Lease and the main trend-setter of the aviation industry, Mr. Udvar-Házy, are renewing their confidence in ATR as the most efficient aircraft in regional aviation."
