Having previously founded ILFC, he left to set up ALC along with ILFC COO John Plueger. The company supplies aircraft to a huge number of global airlines and generated record revenues in 2024 of over $2.7 billion, with a $574 million profit.<\/p>\n<p>Air Lease has a slightly more widebody weighted split between aircraft types, although the bulk of its fleet is still narrowbody. The A321neo accounts for 22.1% of its owned fleet, while the 737-800 and 737 MAX 8 make up a further 24%. On the widebody side, it has a fleet of 38 Dreamliners, accounting for almost 8% of the total fleet, while the A330neo makes up almost 6% with 28 aircraft.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
