CDB Aviation has delivered two of 12 737 MAX 8 aircraft on long-term lease to its existing customer Turkish Airlines.
The two CFM International LEAP-1B engine-powered MAX aircraft were delivered from the lessor’s existing orderbook with Boeing and will be operated by the carrier’s wholly owned subsidiary, AJet.
Deliveries are part of the transaction executed between the lessor and Turkish Airlines in 2023.
The lessor said this stream of MAX 8 deliveries will contribute toward the airline’s stated goal for Ajet to become a key player in the global low-cost aviation industry.
