The equipment need
A company running advanced aerobatic flight training courses and renting out aircraft wanted to strengthen its cash position.
It owned two aircraft paid for with its own funds, which tied up a large share of its resources.
The goal was to tap the value of these assets without giving up its fleet or interrupting its business.
- Two aerobatic aircraft
The support described in the project
Leaseworld structured a sale-leaseback covering the two aircraft owned by the company.
The aircraft were sold and immediately leased back, with no interruption of operations.
The structure was calibrated to match payments to the company's activity cycle.
The reported operational outcome
The sale of the two aircraft immediately rebuilt the company's cash position.
The company kept exclusive use of its aircraft for training and rentals, and the lease payments, now part of operating costs, gave it better financial visibility.
