Boeing Statement on RBS Aviation Capital Order for 43 Next-Generation 737s






FARNBOROUGH, United Kingdom, July 21, 2010 RBS Aviation Capital today disclosed an order for 43 Boeing [NYSE: BA] Next-Generation 737-800s.

Valued at approximately $3.3 billion at average list prices, the RBS orders were posted to Boeing’s Orders and Deliveries website in 2008 and 2009 and attributed to an unidentified customer.

RBS Aviation Capital is leasing the airplanes to its customers through 2015. Last week RBS took delivery of a 737-800 from Boeing, bringing to 125 the number of 737s the leasing company has purchased or financed.

“I am delighted that RBS Aviation Capital is continuing its excellent and long-standing relationships with Boeing,” said Peter Barrett, CEO, RBS Aviation Capital. “The Next-Generation 737 family has been instrumental in helping us create a highly successful global business that has pioneered the strategy of owning and leasing narrowbody, commodity aircraft types that are liquid, investor-friendly and easily tradeable. Our ongoing commitments to Boeing underline that we remain very positive on the outlook for both RBS Aviation Capital and the wider aircraft leasing sector.”
