HALO AirFinance, a joint venture between GA Telesis (GAT) and Tokyo Century (TC), closed its eighth and final senior loan with Crestone Air Partners and Blue Owl Capital investment vehicles. The financing supported the acquisition of one CFM56-7B engine on lease to a European carrier.
This closing marks the completion of a series of eight transactions executed between HALO and Crestone, encompassing a mix of mature narrowbody aircraft and engines leased to operators across Europe, Asia and the Americas.
“Completing this portfolio of transactions with Crestone underscores HALO’s ability to scale our platform to meet the evolving needs of our partners,” Marc Cho, co-head and managing director of HALO, said. “Across eight successful closings, we’ve proven the value of providing flexible capital solutions that unlock opportunities and drive sustainable growth in the aviation sector.”
Kevin Milligan, CEO of Crestone Air Partners, said, “We value our partnership with HALO and are pleased to have successfully completed this series of financings together. These transactions further our ability to strategically grow our portfolio while also reinforcing our commitment to working with partners who bring flexible capital solutions to the aviation market.”
