Hatfield, United Kingdom. BAE Systems Asset Management has won an exclusive global remarketing mandate from Q Aviation of Fort Worth, Texas to arrange the sale of an Airbus A318 into corporate/VIP markets.
The aircraft is a 2007 build A318-111, bearing Manufacturer’s Serial Number 3092. It has flown only 4200 cycles since manufacture and delivery in 2007 and it will be available for delivery to a new operator from August 2009.
Q Aviation is a recognised leader in the global aircraft and engine leasing and servicing industry with a portfolio of both Airbus and Boeing aircraft. It has selected Asset Management for this remarketing role because of its global marketing reach and its deep understanding of the corporate aircraft sector.
Asset Management will build upon the growing success of its Avro Business Jet programme, where it has refined its passenger to corporate aircraft ‘bizliner’ marketing model, in the process developing connections with design houses and conversion centres.
