APOC Aviation recently announced its partnership with Willis Aviation Services Limited (“WASL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Willis Lease Finance Corporation (“Willis Lease”) for APOC’s first part-out (teardown) project to take place at their Teesside Airport facility in the UK. The B737-800 airframe was acquired by APOC through the leading Dutch asset investment manager, Arena Aviation Capital. For the job, APOC has signed a framework agreement for this and future teardowns at Teesside Airport with the experienced end-of-life solutions provider, WASL.
Jasper van den Boogaard, VP Airframe Acquisition & Trading at APOC, said, “We were particularly interested in this airframe as our initial inspection showed the parts installed are perfect for our stock, most having come directly from the KLM/Air France B737-800 component pool. We highly value the services provided by WASL and their specialist part-out team. The project has run very smoothly from the start, and we are working closely with the team onsite. Our full involvement at all times means that our customers can benefit from acquiring parts directly from the project. We have completed several deals with Arena to date and it is always a pleasure doing business with them and their professional team. We look forward to continuing this positive relationship in the future.”
APOC announced to have ample stock readily available at their global hubs located in The Netherlands, Singapore, and Miami.
