Award Winning!!

BeauTech Power Systems was recently recognized by AirFinance Journal with the “Used Aircraft Deal of the Year” award for 2018.  The award recognizes BeauTech and NAC’s partnership in structuring the sale, leaseback, and scheduled return of 25 Embraer E190 aircraft with Air Canada.  Read more about the deal here.  The award ceremony was held in New York City at the Metropolitan Club on May 2, 2019 and was an amazing event. 

Award Winning!!

Hole in ONE!!

Josh Lewis, BeauTech’s designated Golf Pro, had an historic shot last week at GEAM’s 4th Annual Lone Star Heroes Classic. Josh’s second hole of the tourney, #17 on Bear Creek West, was set up for 157 yards from the blue tees. Josh’s shot cleared the front right bunker, bounced towards the right center of the green, and…rolled right into the cup!! A hole in one for Josh and certainly the first hole in one for team BeauTech!

Way to go Josh!!

Hole in ONE!!

BeauTech Partners with NAC to Purchase Air Canada’s E190 Fleet

August 30, 2018

Nordic Aviation Capital (NAC) has entered into an agreement with BeauTech Power Systems, LLC (BeauTech) for the purchase of 25 Embraer E190 aircraft which BeauTech has arranged to purchase from Air Canada. The 25 aircraft have short lease back periods with Air Canada over the forthcoming 18 months. This transaction, which is expected to close by the end of August 2018, serves to further establish NAC’s position as one of the largest lessors in the regional jet and turboprop sector.

“BeauTech is pleased to partner with NAC on this acquisition. By applying the synergies between our two companies we are able to optimize the disposition of these assets and provide continued support to both the aftermarket and the secondary in-service lease markets” said Lee Beaumont, CEO, BeauTech.
