Aviation Capital Group Orders 50 Boeing 737 MAX Aircraft
Boeing and Aviation Capital Group LLC (ACG) announced that ACG has placed a new order for 50 Boeing 737 MAX jets, comprising 25 737-8 and 25 737-10.
Thomas Baker, Chief Executive Officer and President of ACG, said the order supports the company’s growth plans and strengthens its focus on newer, fuel-efficient aircraft.
“This order for additional 737 MAX aircraft enhances the strategic value of ACG’s orderbook, supports a key pillar of our growth strategy and reinforces our commitment to the latest fuel-efficient aircraft technology,” Baker said.
“We are pleased to be able to offer our global customers a continuous stream of 737 MAX delivery positions from 2026 to 2033 to support their growth, as well as the versatility of both the 737-8 and 737-10 variants.”
ACG Expands 737 MAX Order Book
With the addition of these aircraft, ACG’s total Boeing 737 MAX order book increases to 121 aircraft, including 50 firm orders for the 737-10.
Brad McMullen, Boeing Senior Vice President of Commercial Sales and Marketing, said the expanded order reflects demand from ACG’s customer base.
“ACG’s expanded order for the 737-10 reflects strong confidence in the airplane and its appeal to the lessor’s customers worldwide,” McMullen said.
“With this repeat order, ACG continues to be an established partner on the 737 MAX program and we look forward to continuing this relationship as we deliver its first 737-10 airplanes.”
737 MAX Demand from Aircraft Lessors
Boeing noted that aircraft lessors have ordered nearly 1,300 737 MAX jets, representing around one-fifth of the total 737 MAX backlog. The 737 MAX family is used for short- and medium-haul operations and is positioned to offer efficiency and route flexibility for airline customers.
