ICBC Leasing has placed an order with International Aero Engines to provide V2500s for 15 new Airbus A320 family aircraft. The deal is valued at $300 million.
“ICBC Leasing is supported by the largest bank in the world and plans to be among the top lessors in the world within the next few years,” said president Cong Lin. “The excellent performance and great market success of V2500 engines will provide best support to that plan.”
Deliveries will begin in January 2013 and continue into 2015, IAE said.
“We believe aircraft lessors such as ICBC are under fast development in China, helping to bring the next major market growth there,” said IAE regional VP Bob Zimmerman. “ICBC’s order will be the first block order V2500 purchase, by a local lessor in China.”
