Aquila Air Capital

Aquila was established in 2021 as a full-service leasing platform to capitalize on a significant market opportunity in building a specialty finance franchise in commercial aerospace, with an initial focus on purchasing, financing, and leasing mid- to late-life aircraft and engines.

Today, Aquila is a trusted partner across the aviation asset value chain, from asset buyers and sellers to operators seeking innovative and timely business solutions. Aquila is backed by funds managed by Wafra Inc., a New York-based, global alternative asset manager, which provide substantial capital to support the lessor's continued growth.
