Grupo Mexicana ceasing all operations could create several difficult aircraft remarketing propositions as the company operated niche aircraft types such the Airbus A318 and Boeing 717.


Boeing Capital may again need to find new homes for 25 ex-Midwest Airlines Boeing 717s which Mexicana only agreed to lease last year.

GECAS and Export Development Canada will also have to remarket Mexicana's 15 CRJ200s, another type that has glutted the used aircraft market in recent years, and could see further value erosion following Comair's decision earlier this week to remove 49 CRJ200s from its fleet.
