Global Aircraft Solutions Announces Sale of Second 737-200 Aircraft to Pamir Airways
Global Aircraft Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: GACF)
today announced that it has finalized an agreement to sell a second 737-200
aircraft to Pamir Airways for a fixed price of $2,350,000, of which
$2,100,000 has been received, including a previously announced
non-refundable deposit of $500,000.
This aircraft will be delivered with over $700,000 in new maintenance
services, including fresh paint, a fresh heavy maintenance check, and other
integration maintenance required by Pamir's regulatory agencies. The paint
and integration maintenance will be provided by Global's wholly owned
subsidiary Hamilton Aerospace Technologies, Inc. (HAT). All required parts
will be provided by Global's wholly owned subsidiary World Jet.
The Company also announced that it has applied $800,000 of the aircraft
sale proceeds to its senior debt facility, which has now been paid down by
nearly $3.3 million, to approximately $6.7 million, since the beginning of
this year.
Alden Crowley, Director of International Sales for Global Aircraft
Solutions commented, "Sometimes a little patience is required when dealing
with developing countries such as Afghanistan. However, we are very pleased
to have been able to get back on track with Pamir Airways and look forward
to selling additional aircraft and aircraft parts to Pamir in the future."
John Sawyer, President of Global Aircraft Solutions added, "This sale of
another 737-200 aircraft from our ex-JetGlobal inventory enhances our cash
position and further reduces the senior debt. We look forward to continuing
this positive trend."
