DUBLIN, Jan 15 (Reuters) - The CEO of fast-growing
aircraft lessor AviLease on Wednesday said he expects Boeing ( BA )
and Airbus to get their supply issues under
control in the next four years and said he will be opportunistic
about possible aircraft orders.
AviLease , backed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund
(PIF), plans to increase its balance sheet from around $8
billion to around $20 billion by 2030, through acquisitions of
rivals, buying individual planes and "potentially" doing large
orders, Chief Executive Ted O'Byrne said.
Buying from the large manufacturers "is clearly part of the
playbook", O'Byrne told the Airline Economics conference in
Dublin. "There again, you have to be opportunistic."
