Don't rejoice yet. Those of us based in calabar knows this is one of those Ayade's cheap publicity stunts. Everyone here knows Ayade is a scammer. He is yet to complete the spaghetti flyover at Odukpani junction he started over 5 years ago and he is floating Cally Air. I pity those that will patronize it.

you are right oo

Dpharisee:
They are leasing the jet and not outright purchase for a startup it's fine

it looks more like it

Hunchogee:

I wonder why they couldn't lean from IbomAir with 6years old regional Jet instead of buying boeing for regional flight ..

I’m sure every operator wants to fly a new aircraft but it’s expensive and unaffordable. In addition most of these operators want to make quick money out of aviation and close shop afterwards. Regarding ibomair it’s a state funded airline and they leased those regional jets . They didn’t buy them. Akwa ibom tax payers are contributing towards the lease. At the moment it is difficult for Nigerian airlines to lease (dry lease ) an aircraft as they’ve been kind of black listed. These are some of the challenges they face. Each of those airplanes Allen Onyema bought from Brazil cost $60 million whereas this 22 year old one cost $2million.

In 18 months time the 22 year old one will go for c-check and cally air will spend $3 million dollars on repairs . Most operators will dump the aircraft and pick another cheap one for $2 million . After doing that twice or thrice they exit the business

Im. For your information in aviation the records are there for every one . If those embraers are 8 years old and global aviation databases have them on record as 3 months old then one must wonder where you got your information from aside the usual hate.
If you are interested go and check the records of ibom lease deal. Even the COO of ibom has made reference to their obligations to lessors at different forums so I don’t know where you get your info from except you’re just here to throw insults .

Ibom leased three of those aircrafts from Avmax aircraft leasing company and the other two from falko regional leasing under a dry lease agreement .

Bought from which company ? Those aircrafts were leased . If your government lied to you go and check the records. In Aviation, some databases are available to the public. And also check the age of those embraer planes you made reference to instead of displaying hate here. There is nothing bad in leasing an aircraft it doesn’t make you less as an airline. Even Ethiopian leased some aircrafts in their fleet .

shutup you . Ibomair acquired 3 aircraft at once from the same company ..
while the 4 & 5 came from the same company .
So how is it possible to buy 2 from one company and the other I lease from the same company ..
Air peace new jet is 8 yrs old go and watch the owners interview with Arise news ..nonsense

Hunchogee:

Those are lease companies known globally for leasing aircrafts. The LSD is a short for for lease. You are very ignorant but using rude words such as “nonsense” to prove a baseless point. Since you have access to the purchase details how much does it say the aircrafts were purchased for ? Go and check your facts and stop dragging me into this. I don’t engage with mentally lazy individuals .
