Short-term Rentals:

You can rent engines from us to cover your high demand periods. Depending on the location and configuration required, your engines can be ready for pickup as early as the same day you request them.

Primary benefits of our short-term rentals includes:

		Flexibility to cover unscheduled maintenance
		Cost-effective means to bridge a temporary gap in spare engine coverage
		Access to virtually any engine type you need

In conjunction with other GE businesses, we can help you perform engine changes and satisfy maintenance requirements.

Guaranteed Spare Engine Availability (GSEA):

Through GSEA, an insurance and seasonal coverage solution for spares, GE Engine Leasing can guarantee that an appropriate spare engine will be available to you at a predetermined location within 24 hours of your call … any day of the week, at a pre-agreed price. GSEA solves the cost vs. protection dilemma, and allows you to maximize the use of your current engines while ensuring access to extra engines during peak periods.

GE Engine Leasing assumes all risks and administrative burden of such coverage, freeing up airline financial resources. The product provides customers with the benefits of GE Engine Leasing's large pool of spare engines and its expertise in spare engine management.

A larger airline can operate with a lower ratio of spare engines in their fleet than a smaller one. To capture that advantage for the customer, GE Engine Leasing pools its engines by combining the short-term needs of many smaller airlines into what is, in effect, a large airline fleet. We can then use our pool of spare engines more efficiently than an individual airline. The result is guaranteed spare engine coverage at a price that's less than the airline's cost to carry underutilized spares. Customers access this program by paying a fee based on the number of aircraft supported plus a fixed daily rental for use of the engine. GE Engine Leasing can tailor a GSEA program to meet each airline's needs.

The options are:

		Top-off coverage: The airline provides a number of spare engines that are expected to be in use most of the time; GE Engine Leasing provides for any additional needs through pool access.
		Full coverage: GE Engine Leasing provides engines to meet all the airline's spares needs; GSEA can be combined with Operating Leases or other spare engine financing. GE Engine Leasing can also purchase excess spare engines to initiate the GSEA program with a customer.

Through the GSEA service, GE Engine Leasing supplies a wide range of engines, including the CF34 line.

Engine Exchange:

When faced with an immediate need for an engine and a potentially expensive shop visit, this may be your best solution. It provides you with the engine you need while minimizing your cash outlay. We'll exchange one of our serviceable engines for your unserviceable engine, crediting a fair market value price for your engine toward the sale price of ours. In conjunction with GE Aviation Materials, a leading provider of aircraft and turbine engine spare parts, GE Engine Leasing can help you find the engine that matches your technical and operational requirements.
