Contrail Aviation Support, LLC is a commercial aircraft trading, leasing and parts solutions provider focused on creative asset management strategies that maximize value. Founded in 2000 as an engine material trading company primarily focused on used serviceable material from the JT8D and CFM56-3, Contrail has since expanded into the most prevalent engine types powering the 737NG & A320 family.
In addition, the Company has diversified into commercial aviation asset trading and leasing with a primary focus on mid-life to older commercial aircraft and engines that include speculative purchases of “naked” assets, sale and lease-back, and stub lease with no limitations on term length.
Contrail’s headquarters are located two hours north of Chicago’s O’Hare airport in a 21,000 sqft. facility. The company also has a whole-asset trading office in Denver, CO and a satellite marketing presence in Shanghai, China.
One of our core focuses is to build long-lasting customer and vendor relationships. Quality, value and integrity are the principles we were founded upon and continue to drive our business forward.
Contrail is a business unit of AIR T, INC. (NASDAQ: AIRT), which is an industrious American holding company with a portfolio of powerful businesses, each of which operate independently yet interrelatedly.
