Airbus talks up A220’s regional credentials as NAC firms order
FlightGlobal | January 24, 2020
Nordic Aviation Capital has firmed up its order for 20 Airbus A220-300s, prompting the manufacturer to highlight the aircraft’s relevance in the regional aviation market. Regional aircraft lessor NAC had signed a memorandum of understanding for 20 A220s in June 2019. Airbus chief commercial officer Christian Scherer states that NAC’s A220 order “shows this aircraft is just as relevant in the regional world as it is in the mainline one”. The aircraft is designed to serve the 100-150 seat market.
