The aviation industry is one characterized by its constant search for new methods to finance and acquire new equipment as international markets develop. In this search, multiple legal and financial frameworks have been created resulting in economic flexibility for carriers, through very complex transactions. Inside this trend of financial arrangements the most frequently used method is to lease the equipment they need. / The main concern related to these transactions is that aircrafts are highly movable assets that can travel to various jurisdictions. This faculty supposes a threat to lessors and owners' property interests over the aircraft because property law is encompassed into national laws and are not easily recognized in other countries in cases of controversies centered in a movable good. / Chapter I of this thesis will focus on the different types of financing methods used by carriers to procure new equipment. Chapter II discusses the current international conventions in force regulating international leases. Finally, Chapter III purports to analyze the Draft UNIDROIT Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment and the Protocol related to Aircraft Equipment.
