Will someone tell me why 4 Falcon Air Express Boeing 727?s all of a sudden had an FAA registry change on 7/8/03 to VIVA?s PR?d Fuel supplier http://news.cnet.com/investor/news/newsitem/0-9900-1028-21007969-0.html ?? Could it be that these are the first few VIVA 727?s being wet leased from Falcon, and there was a paperwork change to World fuel for Viva?s Startup operations?

It could be a sales-leaseback arrangement, maybe to pay down debt with World Fuel? I've never heard of an arrangement where a fuel company would make you sign over the airplane without cause. World Fuel is aggressive in collections and the State of Florida is the only state that allows a lien on an airacraft for unpaid fuel.

Well, perhaps I misspoke on the terminology, but there was a change in the database for those planes, is what I meant.

So why do you suppose a lien would be placed on those 4 planes, all on 7/8/03??

Could be they are asking for an increase in their credit line

I don't think that's an increase in credit, I think that's non-payment. It could be they worked out the terms of payment using the aircraft for collateral, in which case it wouldn't affect Falcon/Aeropostal's operation.
