FAI rent-a-jet AG, Germany's largest business jet
operator, has bid farewell to its penultimate Learjet 55 aircraft (D-CAAE),
which will now continue life as an air ambulance jet in the USA.
The
Learjet 55 has already been replaced by a Learjet 60 aircraft (D-CFAL) recently
acquired by FAI in Bulgaria. Earlier this year, FAI's last Learjet 35A aircraft
was also replaced by a Learjet 60 (D-CFAT).
Siegfried
Axtmann, Chairman of FAI rent-a-jet AG, commented, "I am delighted to see
that our fleet replacement and harmonisation project is on track. We anticipate
outsourcing our last Learjet 55 by mid-2018 as scheduled, completing our
transition to a more modern Learjet fleet comprised entirely of Learjet 60
aircraft."
FAI
currently has 11 Learjet 60 aircraft in service, which means it operates the
world's largest fleet of that aircraft type. Beside the Learjet 60, the company
also operates four Global Express, five Challenger 604 aircraft, one Premier 1A
and a King Air 350. The company recently added its largest corporate jet to the
fleet, an Airbus A319CJ which will be available for lease and ad hoc charter in
mid-2018 following a cabin upgrade.
