When you first lease a plane, you pay for the first 4 months. Thus, you don't pay the lease for that time. Then, after that 4 months, you start to pay the lease, which is paid either every day or every week (a proportion of the lease sum, which can be seen on the aircraft page).

Yeah. I think Sami has tried to minimize the costs taken off that way. I think the C and D checks are currently the only big cash slumps...

Why do you start paying weekly lease costs right away?  Haven't you paid for 4 months up front? Shouldn't the weekly lease costs not start until month 5? 

I noticed this too.  Is this a bug?

You shouldn't. But, if you have more than 1 plane, the 1st has probably then been in your company for that 4 months, and when you got your 2nd airplane, you also see its leasing costs for the 4 months (but, this is a one-time payment).
If it was your 1st plane, you should probably take screenshots and report a bug..
