GOAL, German Operating Aircraft Leasing, has sold four Embraer E190-200 aircraft to US based lessor Regional One. The four aircraft are currently on operating leases to Air Europa, based in Majorca, Spain.
The aircraft were originally acquired by four GOAL special purpose companies from Air Europa in 2010 and 2011 with long term operating leases. The aircraft were held by private investors through public funds managed by GOAL and GOAL’s majority shareholder KGAL.
Petrus Aviation provided equity lease financing to Regional One through a special purpose entity owned by both companies.
GOAL is a joint venture of KGAL GmbH & Co. KG, one of Germany’s leading independent investment and asset managers with an investment volume of €22.7 billion and Deutsche Lufthansa AG, one of the world’s premier carriers. GOAL currently owns and manages 58 aircraft.
