Fleet growth is driven by GDP and the so-called “Disneyland factor”
(the rate in which a country’s population enters the middle class)

Fleet retirements are down from peak levels
GLOBAL FLEET DEMOGRAPHICS
$66B
Alton Insight
▪ Typical aircraft life is approx. 25
years; there was a large spike in
aircraft deliveries in the late 1980’s
▪ Increased retirements was also driven
by high fuel prices and uneconomic
50-seat regional jets
▪ Low fuel prices and a strong traffic
growth environment contributed to
the slowdown in retirements rates
▪ The surge in aircraft retirements
spawned the aircraft tear-down/part-
out industry (very disruptive to OEM
new parts sales)

Alton Insight
▪ The big 3 Middle East airlines account
for 522, or almost 25%, of total
widebody orders
▪ Demand has been unexpectedly weak
for the very large aircraft (VLA)
market segment
▪ Emirates accounts for 142 A380
orders and operates almost half of the
global fleet of 216 aircraft delivered to
date
▪ The 747-8 appears to be destined for

Are interest rates the new fuel price?
FLEET GROWTH RISKS & IMPLICATIONS
Alton Insight
▪ OEMs – Negative: Customer financing costs
increase; more difficult to sell new aircraft
▪ MROs - Positive: Used aircraft stay in
service longer so volumes increase
▪ Airlines - Neutral: Inclined to retain more
used aircraft; aircraft overall cost more to
own and lease, so incremental less capacity
▪ Lessors – Neutral: Cost of financing
increases; value of new aircraft incrementally
less, value of used aircraft incrementally
more
▪ Parts Traders – Negative: More difficult to
source used aircraft
▪ Financial Investors - Negative: Value of
outstanding bonds decline

SUMMARY &
CONCLUSION
▪ Overall, the state of the aviation industry is strong
▪ Airbus’ C-Series investment is an industry game changer
▪ Over-concentration of widebody orders in the Middle East
▪ Limited market demand for the very large aircraft (VLA) segment
▪ Interest rates are the new fuel cost
