Fleet expansion and/or upgrade is sometimes the only feasible means for an airline to remain competitive in what is an extremely competitive industry. The leasing of new and used aircraft has become an increasingly popular and often preferred mode of aircraft acquisition. Over 40% of all commercial and commuter aircraft acquired today are subject to some form of leasing structure, and leasing has therefore become a key element in fleet planning for most airlines. Leasing conserves an airline's liquidity and capital, improves fleet-sizing flexibility, facilitates strategic planning, and generally provides more cost effective as well as off-balance sheet financing.
The operating lease, which is the most common lease vehicle, offers an airline growth potential, limited financial exposure, and no asset risk. PCG's objective is to enable its airline clients to concentrate on their core business of operating aircraft assets rather than taking asset risk. PCG offers flexibility that is critical in responding to an airline's changing requirements by offering a cost-beneficial alternative to owning the aircraft. PCG possesses the experience and financial resources required to compete effectively in the cyclical aviation market, and it can structure off-balance-sheet operating leases which provide full tax and accounting benefits associated with true leases.
