Hello,
Understud that if I terminate lease contract I need to pay 50% rest of the leasing period.
But If I terminate lease buying aircraft, do they add 50% remaining lease price to plane price? Or do I need to pay in this case whole 100% whats rest?
Does not say.

It is only say:
The cost to buy this aircraft is determined by the leasing company and it depends on the remaining lease period's cost and specifications of the aircraft.
I dont know, is it eaven wise to buy aircraft until whole leasing period used?

If you buy an aircraft, it is no longer on a lease, you own it, you are not paying any lease payments.

You can either sell it, lease it out or scrap it.

I am not 100% sure, but I think it is as if you terminated the lease, that is, you pay only 50% of the remaining lease.

Unless you are really drowning in cash, there are better uses for cash immediately, and waiting to use cash to buy out leases closer to their termination.

Another thing to take care of, is the evolution of new planes prices. Depending in the dynamic of the game, it may be not much costlier to buy a brand new plane. In other circumstances, the new planes are going to insane prices, and it"s better to buy the other one. Be alert.

It was quite the opposite in my case: a new plane was significantly cheaper than to buy a 2-3 year old leased one.
