Global Aircraft Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: GACF) today announced that
it has executed an agreement to sell two 737-200 aircraft to the newly
reorganized Azteca Airlines. The two 737-200 aircraft are owned by

BCI Aircraft Leasing.
Both aircraft will be delivered ready to go into service with
fresh paint, a fresh 'C' check, and any other integration maintenance
required by Azteca's regulatory agencies. The paint and integration
maintenance will be provided by Global's wholly owned subsidiary

wholly owned subsidiary World Jet. The aircraft are being input into
maintenance work within the next 30 days and are anticipated to
require approximately 45 days to complete. Each aircraft is being
delivered to Azteca Airlines, ready for service, for a fixed price
which is being placed in escrow and payable on closing. To fund this
acquisition, Azteca are selling a Boeing 737-700 to Global Aircraft
Leasing Partners and part of the proceeds will be used to fully fund
the escrow.
