FTAI Aviation makes money by owning and fixing the kinds of jet engines airlines already fly, and it’s shifting from renting assets to selling faster, lower-cost maintenance services.

FTAI Aviation’s profits hinge on keeping older jet engines in the air, but airlines and regulators are pushing hard toward newer, cleaner technology that could shrink demand for the company’s core work.
