M: Alexandra, where did you work before?
W: I worked at an airport. Or I can say I worked in Aviation.
M: You worked in Aviation?
W: Yes, my previous job was to write contracts for an aviation company. We bought and sold airplanes and aircraft engines, so we did a lot of marketing and leasing. We also speak to people from different countries and airlines wanting to buy equipment. So there are a lot of negotiations.
M: Can you explain what leasing is?
W: Leasing happens when our company owns a piece of equipment, either an airplane or an engine and a customer has a need. For example, if their airplane has to do some maintenance and they need a replacement, then we will let them use our airplane for a certain number of months, like you renting a car. Same thing, same idea.
M: Oh, wow. And you lease out not only the planes but engines as well?
W: Sometimes you have an airplane that’s delayed at the airport because of some reason and they need to swap an engine out, or whatever.
M: Right before the plane takes off, they sometimes switch engines?
W: They’ll take the passengers off and put them on another plane because it takes a lot longer than the 10- or 15-minutes turnaround.
M: So can I lease a pilot?
W: You can, yes, you can lease a crew. Yes! It’s called a wet lease, and we used to do dry leases meaning we only provided the equipment but a wet lease includes a full crew that will fly the airplane, flight attendants, etc.
Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
1. What did Alexandra use to do?
2. When will leasing happen according to the woman?
