In fleet and deliveries Virgin Atlantic (UK) took delivery of one new B787-9 Brussels Airlines (Belgium) took delivery of one A320-200, leased from Avolon (Ireland).

BOC Aviation (Singapore) to lease seven A320neos to Chongqing Airlines (China), all scheduled for delivery in 2018. Today ATR announced a deal with Silver Airways for 20 new aircraft. 16 ATR-600s and four 72-600 aircraft. This marks the first time ATR-600 will be operated in the US. With orders from Silver Airways Fedex, Indigo and Iran air last year, ATR has garnered 113 firm orders in 2017, compared to 36 in 2016. The latest deal with Silver Airways is also significant to Nordic Aviation Capital as it will be the 100th new aircraft order placed by the leader in regional aircraft leasing. Airbus Helicopters announced its results for last year that saw orders fall in 2017 compared to 2016 with 350 orders at the end of the year compared to 388 last year. Deliveries were also down this year with 409 helicopters delivered compared to 418 in 2016. Despite this, Airbus still maintains its 50% market share of the civil and parapublic helicopter market. One segment that Airbus has particularly struggled with in the past year is its heavy twins in the civil market segment. The super puma has failed to garner new orders in the oil and gas industry after the bad publicity that followed a fatal crash in 2016. Despite this military orders for the Super Puma family of aircraft remain strong keeping the program alive while the offshore passenger transport industry is recovering In Airline and traffic news Iberia (Spain) to start A350-900 service to New York and London in August 2018.
