"We are very pleased that Guggenheim Aviation Partners
has chosen to be a launch customer for the A330-200F. The decision
by such an investment firm to acquire the A330-200 freighter is a
great endorsement for our new freighter. It clearly demonstrates
Guggenheim's foresight and the confidence investors put in the
value of our new freighter."
