Aircraft Leasing & Trading Support (ALTS®)
Solutions for a dynamic market
Support for lessors & banks and airlines
A typical leased narrow-body aircraft changes operator – and often the owner – an average of four times in the course of its lifecycle. If you belong to one of the two main groups involved – banks/leasing companies on the one hand and airlines on the other – our integrated Aircraft Leasing & Trading Support (ALTS®) is the perfect product for you, offering an all-encompassing support for every task involved.
Our support integrates all technical issues that may arise in the course of a leased aircraft's lifecycle. ALTS® provides you with a solution for each phase, offering a modular portfolio of services tailored to your business.
Our ALTS® services include:
- Aircraft selection
- Technical and operational support
- Interim support and remarketing
- Aircraft part-out
ALTS® for Lessors and Banks
Long-term value for aircraft owners
As an aircraft owner – a leasing company or bank – it is especially important for you to ensure the long-term quality of your flying assets. Here is where ALTS® comes into play.
ALTS® supports you even before your aircraft takes off for the first time, with our production inspection ensuring perfect quality of new aircraft. ALTS® covers all relevant services if an airplane changes its owner and ensures a fast transition. With our extensive CAMO Services we maintain the airworthiness of your aircraft during critical transitions as well. We never lose sight of your assets and make the most of your aircraft's remaining value even after it has reached the end of its service life. Last but not least our extensive Engineering Consultancy and Technical Asset Management Services support you in managing your assets - be it for engines or entire aircraft.
ALTS® for Airlines
Strong position for operators
If you are an aircraft operator seeking our leasing and trading support, you will gain the greatest benefit from our advisory services even before starting the search for a new aircraft. As an operator you profit from our unique experience with day-to-day real-world operational support of all modern aircraft types. For used aircraft, we are able to determine the exact technical status of the aircraft and its components. Providing you with a realistic value of your aircraft also puts you in a strong position for negotiations during lease returns.
Our ALTS® service spectrum for airlines and operators covers the classic maintenance, repair and overhaul spectrum dedicated to your specific needs during operations – covering everything from line maintenance to heavy airframe maintenance, spare parts and cabin refurbishments. With a change of operator - a reality in every leased aircraft's lifecycle - our aircraft transition module provides all elements relevant during this critical phase. We inspect the aircraft and support all documentation issues at one of your facilities worldwide.
