Introduction
During the transfer of an aircraft due to the sale or end of the lease, the lease return conditions suddenly become very important and we pay attention (maybe for the first time!) and whilst our wish “of course” is to return the aircraft as it is, this is usually not possible for a myriad of reasons.
Obviously, the primary concern of the lessee is to minimize any unnecessary expenditure, whereas the lessor is of course focused on positioning the aircraft in the best way possible to provide the maximum appeal to the next customer means to receive the aircraft in a new condition.
