Facing obstacles in exporting planes leased to KF Air: ILFC

International Lease Finance Corp (ILFC) has said it is facing "bureaucratic and regulatory obstacles" in exporting the remaining three aircrafts that were leased to now grounded Kingfisher Airlines. US-headquartered ILFC is a leading player in the leasing and re-marketing of aircraft to commercial carriers. Vijay Mallya-led Kingfisher Airlines, which ceased operations late last year, had six leased aircrafts from ILFC at that time. Later, the American firm got all of them de-registered and exported three aircrafts. However, it is facing hurdles in taking the remaining three out of India.
