June 5-16th, 2007 Cochabama, Bolivia: Linguistically capable, bi-lingual in Spanish and armed with an established presence and level of experience with such issues as maintenance, engineering, project management and leasing / contract, the 94th AeroClaims-Aviation Consulting Group was called upon by GA Telesis of Fort Lauderdale, Florida to assist them in the repossession of two of their B727-200's CP-2455 formerly N910PG (s/n 2206) and CP-2324 formerly N918PG (s/n 21823) from the 80 year old Bolivian carrier known as Lloyd Aero Bolivano (LAB), the Country's first established commercial airlines for lack of payment in excess of 18 months.
Our experience concerning aircraft leasing / contracts dates back to our experience with ITOCHU AirLease in which we assisted their technical department when ITOCHU was based in Greenwich, CT. Our experience also extend to working with GECAS and CIT in these matters.
Oddly enough, 94th ACG Founder & CEO "Benny" was on site with his team in engaged dialog with LAB leaders, as well as with the local Bolivian DGAC in Cochabama concerning what then appeared to be the ultimate shut down of one of Latin America's oldest Airline dating back to the 1920's.
The name "Beni / Benny" signifying the start and the end of Bolivian commercial aviation, as LAB first commercial aircraft in service dating back to 1920 was a Junkers F.13 float plane called "Beni". And "Benny" was the name of the person who objective / mission on behave of the client, GA Telesis was to yank the two remaining operational aircraft from LAB's fleet. The Alpha and the Omega shared the same name.
