PART I

Item 1.  Business

General

International Lease Finance Corporation (the “Company,” “ILFC,” “management,” “we,” “our,” “us”) primarily acquires new commercial jet aircraft from The Boeing Company, or Boeing, and Airbus S.A.S., or Airbus, and leases these aircraft to airlines throughout the world. In conjunction with our leasing activity, we regularly sell aircraft from our leased aircraft fleet to other leasing companies, financial services companies, and airlines. In some cases, we provide fleet management services to investors and/or owners of aircraft portfolios for a management fee. From time to time we provide asset value guarantees and loan guarantees to the buyers of aircraft, or to the lenders, for a fee. We also remarket and sell aircraft owned or managed by others for a fee.

As of December 31, 2006, we owned 824 jet aircraft, had ten aircraft in the fleet that were classified as finance leases and provided fleet management services for 104 aircraft. See “Item 2. Properties — Flight Equipment.” At December 31, 2006, we had contracted with Boeing and Airbus to purchase 254 new aircraft for delivery through 2015 with an estimated purchase price of $19.0 billion, of which 83 will deliver in 2007 with an estimated aggregate purchase price of $5.4 billion. See “Item 2. Properties — Commitments.”

We maintain a variety of flight equipment to provide a strategic mix and balance so as to meet our customers’ needs and to maximize our opportunities. To minimize the time that our aircraft are not leased to customers, we concentrate our aircraft purchases on models of new and used aircraft which we believe will have the greatest airline demand and operational longevity.

We typically finance the purchase of aircraft with borrowed funds and internally generated cash flows. Management accesses the capital markets for funds at times and on terms and conditions considered appropriate. We may, but do not usually, engage in financing transactions for specific aircraft. We rely significantly on short- and medium-term financing, and thereby attempt to more closely match the lease terms of our aircraft. To date, we have been able to purchase aircraft on terms which have permitted us to lease our aircraft portfolio at a profit and have been able to obtain the necessary funding from the capital and bank markets.

The airline industry is cyclical, economically sensitive and highly competitive. See “Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Our continued success in the future is largely dependent on management’s ability to develop customer relationships for leasing, sales, remarketing and management services with airlines and other customers best able to maintain their economic viability and survive in the competitive environment in which they operate.

The Company is incorporated in the State of California and its principal offices are located at 10250 Constellation Blvd., Suite 3400, Los Angeles, California 90067. Our telephone number, telecopier number and website address are(310) 788-1999,(310) 788-1990, and www.ilfc.com, respectively. We make available our SEC EDGAR filings, free of charge, on our website or by written request to us. The information on our website is not part of or incorporated by reference into this report.

We are an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”). AIG is a holding company which through its subsidiaries is engaged in a broad range of insurance and insurance-related activities in the United States and abroad. AIG’s primary activities include both general insurance and life insurance and retirement services operations. Other significant activities include financial services and asset management. The common stock of AIG is listed on, among others, the New York Stock Exchange.

Aircraft Leasing

We lease most of our aircraft under operating leases. The cost of the aircraft is not fully recovered over the term of the initial lease, and we retain the benefit as well as assume the risk of the residual value of the aircraft. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, rentals are reported ratably as revenue over the lease term, as they are earned. The aircraft under operating leases are included as “Flight equipment under operating lease” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and are depreciated to an estimated salvage value over the estimated useful lives of the aircraft. On occasion we enter into finance and sales-type leases where the full cost of the aircraft

1

is substantially recovered over the term of the lease. With respect to these leases, we record lease payments received as a reduction in the net investment in the finance/sales-type leases and interest income using an interest rate implicit in the lease. The aircraft under finance and sales-type leases are recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets in “Net investment in finance and sales-type leases.” At December 31, 2006, we accounted for 824 aircraft as operating leases and ten aircraft as finance leases.

The initial term of our current leases range in length from two years to 17 years. See “Item 2.Properties — Flight Equipment” for information regarding scheduled lease terminations. We attempt to maintain a mix of short-, medium- and long-term leases to balance the benefits and risks associated with different lease terms and changing market conditions. Varying lease terms help to mitigate the effects of changes in prevailing market conditions at the time aircraft become eligible for re-lease or are sold.

All leases are on a “net” basis with the lessee responsible for all operating expenses, which customarily include fuel, crews, airport and navigation charges, taxes, licenses, registration and insurance. In addition, the lessee is responsible for normal maintenance and repairs, airframe and engine overhauls, and compliance with return conditions of flight equipment on lease. We may, in connection with the lease of a used aircraft, agree to contribute to the cost of certain major overhauls or modifications depending on the condition of the aircraft at delivery. Under the provisions of many leases, for certain airframe and engine overhauls, we reimburse the lessee for costs incurred up to, but not exceeding, related hourly rentals the lessee has paid to us. Such rentals are included in the caption “Rental of flight equipment” in our Consolidated Statements of Income. We provide a charge to operations based on the estimated reimbursements during the life of the lease. This amount is included in “Provision for overhauls” in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

The lessee is responsible for compliance with all applicable laws and regulations with respect to the aircraft. We require our lessees to comply with the standards of either the United States Federal Aviation Administration (the “FAA”) or its foreign equivalent. We periodically inspect our leased aircraft. Generally, we require a deposit as security for the lessee’s performance of obligations under the lease and the condition of the aircraft upon return. In addition, the leases contain extensive provisions regarding our remedies and rights in the event of a default by the lessee and specific provisions regarding the condition of the aircraft upon return of the aircraft. The lessee is required to continue to make lease payments under all circumstances, including periods during which the aircraft is not in operation due to maintenance or grounding.

Some foreign countries have currency and exchange laws regulating the international transfer of currencies. When necessary we require, as a condition to any foreign transaction, that the lessee or purchaser in a foreign country obtain the necessary approvals of the appropriate government agency, finance ministry or central bank for the remittance of all funds contractually owed in U.S. Dollars. We attempt to minimize our currency and exchange risks by negotiating most of our aircraft leases and all of our sales transactions in U.S. Dollars. All guarantees obtained to support various lease agreements are denominated for payment in the same currency as the lease.

To meet the needs of a growing number of airlines, some of our leases are negotiated in Euros. As the Euro to U.S. Dollar exchange rate fluctuates, airlines’ interest in entering into Euro denominated lease agreements will change. Once we agree to the rental payment currency with an airline, the negotiated currency remains for the term of the lease. We have hedged the majority of our future Euro denominated lease payments receivable cash flows through February 2010. The economic risk arising from foreign currency has, to date, been immaterial to us.

Management obtains and reviews relevant business materials from all prospective lessees and purchasers before entering into a lease or extending credit. Under certain circumstances, the lessee may be required to obtain guarantees or other financial support from an acceptable financial institution or other third parties.

During the life of the lease, situations may arise whereby we will have to restructure leases with our lessees. Historically, restructurings have involved the voluntary termination of leases prior to lease expiration, the arrangement of subleases from the primary lessee to another airline and the rescheduling of lease payments and extension of the lease terms. In many situations where we repossess an aircraft, we export the aircraft from the lessee’s jurisdiction. In the majority of these situations, we have obtained the lessee’s cooperation and the return and export of the aircraft was immediate. In some situations, however, the lessees have not fully cooperated in returning aircraft. In those cases we have taken legal action in the appropriate jurisdictions. This process has delayed the

2

ultimate return and export of the aircraft. In addition, in connection with the repossession of an aircraft, we may be required to pay outstanding mechanic’s fees, airport, navigation and other liens on the repossessed aircraft. These charges could relate to other aircraft that we do not own but were operated by the lessee.

Flight Equipment Marketing

We may sell our leased aircraft at or before the expiration of their leases. The buyers of our aircraft include the aircraft’s lessees, another aircraft operators, financial institutions, private investors and third party lessors. From time to time, we engage in transactions to buy aircraft for resale. In other cases, we assist our customers in acquiring or disposing of aircraft by providing consulting services and procurement of financing from third parties. Any gain or loss on disposition of leased aircraft is included in the caption “Flight equipment marketing” in our Consolidated Statements of Income. In 2003 and early 2004, we sold aircraft into securitization trusts which were primarily funded and owned by other subsidiaries of AIG and are consolidated by AIG. These transactions were structured as securitizations. In our 2004 Consolidated Statement of Income the gains, net of expense, are included in “Flight equipment marketing — Securitization”. See “Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Results of Operations”for more information on these transactions.

From time to time, we are engaged as an agent for airlines and various financial institutions in the disposition of their surplus aircraft on a fee basis. We generally act as an agent under an exclusive remarketing contract whereby we agree to sell aircraft on a commercially reasonable basis within a fixed time period. These activities generally augment our primary activities and also serve to promote relationships with prospective sellers and buyers of aircraft. We may, from time to time, participate with banks, other financial institutions and airlines to assist in financing aircraft purchased by others and by providing asset guarantees, put options, or loan guarantees collateralized by aircraft on a fee-basis.

We plan to continue to engage in providing marketing services to third parties on a selective basis involving specific situations where these activities will not conflict or compete with, but rather will complement, our leasing and selling activities.

Fleet Management Services

We provide fleet management services to third party operating lessors who are unable or unwilling to perform this service as part of their own operation. We typically provide the same services that we perform for our own fleet. Specifically, we provide leasing, re-leasing and sales services on behalf of the lessor for which we charge a fee. In connection with the sales of aircraft to the trusts discussed above, we were retained to provide fleet management services for the aircraft sold for which we receive fees from the trusts. The fees for fleet management services are included in “Interest and other” in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Financing/Source of Funds

We purchase new aircraft directly from manufacturers and used aircraft from airlines and other owners. The purchase price of flight equipment is financed using internally generated funds, secured and unsecured commercial bank financings and the issuance of commercial paper and public and private debt. See “Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

(a)  A customer is an airline with its own operating certificate.

During 2005 and 2004, we had one customer that accounted for 10% or more of total Rental of flight equipment revenue, Air France ($364.6 million or 10.5% in 2005 and $309.5 million or 10.5% in 2004). No single customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenues in 2006.

Revenues include rentals of flight equipment to foreign airlines of $3,604,495,000 in 2006, $3,095,612,000 in 2005 and $2,662,182,000 in 2004, comprising 90.5%, 88.9% and 90.1%, respectively, of total Rentals of flight equipment revenue. See Note H ofNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Lease revenues from the rental of flight equipment have been reduced by payments received by our customers from the notional accounts established by the aircraft and engine manufacturers.

The following table sets forth the dollar amount and percentage of total rental revenues attributable to the indicated geographic areas based on each airline’s principal place of business for the years indicated:

Competition

The leasing, remarketing and sale of jet aircraft is highly competitive. We face competition from aircraft manufacturers, banks, financial institutions, other leasing companies, aircraft brokers and airlines. Competition for a leasing transaction is based on a number of factors including delivery dates, lease rates, term of lease, other lease

4

provisions, aircraft condition and the availability in the market place of the types of aircraft to meet the needs of the customer. We believe we are a strong competitor in all of these areas. However, past overcapacity in the market place increased competition from other entities leasing aircraft which caused downward pressure on lease rates, lease revenue and aircraft values. Recently, the overcapacity has been absorbed in the market place, and we now see higher lease rates on newly signed leases.

Government Regulation

The U.S. Department of State (“DOS”) and the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”), including the FAA, an agency of the DOT, exercise regulatory authority over air transportation in the United States.

The DOS and DOT, in general, have jurisdiction over the economic regulation of air transportation, including the negotiation with foreign governments of the rights of U.S. carriers to fly to other countries and the rights of foreign carriers to fly to and within the United States. We are not directly subject to the regulatory jurisdiction of the DOS and DOT or their counterpart organizations in foreign countries related to the operation of aircraft for public transportation of passengers and property.

Our relationship with the FAA consists of the registration with the FAA of those aircraft which we have leased to U.S. carriers and to a number of foreign carriers where, by agreement, the aircraft are to be registered in the United States. When an aircraft is not on lease, we may obtain from the FAA, or its designated representatives, a U.S. Certificate of Airworthiness or a ferry flight permit for the particular aircraft.

Our involvement with the civil aviation authorities of foreign jurisdictions consists largely of requests to register and deregister our aircraft on those countries’ registries.

The U.S. Department of Commerce (“DOC”) exercises regulatory authority over exports. We are subject to the regulatory authority of the DOS and DOC as it relates to the export of aircraft for lease and sale to foreign entities and the export of parts to be installed on our aircraft. These Departments have, in some cases, required us to obtain export licenses for parts installed in aircraft exported to foreign countries.

Through its regulations, the DOC and the U.S. Department of Treasury (through its Office of Foreign Assets Control) impose restrictions on the operation of U.S. made goods such as aircraft and engines in sanctioned countries. In addition, they impose restrictions on the ability of U.S. companies to conduct business with entities in those countries.

The Patriot Act of 2001 reinforced the authority of the U.S. Secretary of State and the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury to (a) designate individuals and organizations as terrorists and terrorist supporters and to freeze their U.S. assets and (b) prohibit financial transactions with U.S. persons, including U.S. individuals, entities and charitable organizations. We comply with the provisions of this Act and we closely monitor our activities with foreign entities.

A bureau of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, enforces regulations related to the export of our aircraft as well as the import of our aircraft into the United States for maintenance or lease and the importation of parts for installation on our aircraft. We monitor our imports and exports for compliance with U.S. Customs regulations.

Employees

We operate in a capital intensive rather than a labor intensive business. As of December 31, 2006, we had 172 full-time employees, which we considered adequate for our business operations. Management and administrative personnel will expand, as necessary, to meet our future growth needs. None of our employees is covered by a collective bargaining agreement and we believe that we maintain excellent employee relations. We provide certain employee benefits including retirement, health, life, disability and accident insurance plans, some of which are established and maintained by our parent, AIG.

Insurance

Our lessees are required to carry those types of insurance which are customary in the air transportation industry, including comprehensive liability insurance and aircraft hull insurance. In general, we are an additional insured on liability policies carried by the lessees. We obtain certificates of insurance from the lessees’ insurance

5

brokers. All certificates of insurance contain a breach of warranty endorsement so that our interests are not prejudiced by any act or omission of the operator-lessee.

Insurance premiums are paid by the lessee, with coverage acknowledged by the broker or carrier. The territorial coverage is, in each case, suitable for the lessee’s area of operations. The certificates of insurance contain, among other provisions, a “noco-insurance” clause and a provision prohibiting cancellation or material change without at least 30 days advance written notice to the insurance broker, who is obligated to give us prompt notice. Hull/war insurance policies customarily provide seven days advance written notice for cancellation and may be subject to lesser notice under certain market conditions. Furthermore, the insurance is primary and not contributory, and all insurance carriers are required to waive rights of subrogation against us.

The stipulated loss value schedule under aircraft hull insurance policies is on an agreed value basis acceptable to us and usually exceeds the book value of the aircraft. In cases where we believe that the agreed value stated in the lease is not sufficient, we purchase additional Total Loss Only coverage for the deficiency. Aircraft hull policies contain standard clauses covering aircraft engines. The lessee is required to pay all deductibles. Furthermore, the aircraft hull policies contain full war risk endorsements, including, but not limited to, confiscation (where available), seizure, hijacking and similar forms of retention or terrorist acts. Lease agreements generally require liability limits to be in U.S. Dollars, which are shown on the certificate of insurance.

The comprehensive liability insurance listed on certificates of insurance include provisions for bodily injury, property damage, passenger liability, cargo liability and such other provisions reasonably necessary in commercial passenger and cargo airline operations. Such certificates of insurance list combined comprehensive single liability limits of not less than $250 million. As a result of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the insurance market unilaterally imposed a sublimit on each operator’s policy for third party war risk liability in the amount of $50 million. We require each lessee to purchase higher limits of third party war risk liability or obtain an indemnity from their government. Additionally, we purchase contingent liability insurance and contingent hull insurance on all aircraft in our fleet. In late 2005, the international aviation insurance market unilaterally introduced exclusions for physical damage to aircraft hulls caused by dirty bombs, bio-hazardous materials and electromagnetic pulsing. It is anticipated that exclusions for the same type of perils will be introduced into liability policies within the next twelve months as well. Our lease agreements require the airlines to obtain the broadest available write-back when it becomes available.

We also maintain other insurance covering the specific needs of our business operations. Insurance policies are generally placed or reinsured through AIG subsidiaries. AIG charges us directly for these insurance costs. We believe that our insurance is adequate both as to coverage and amount.

Code of Ethics and Conduct

Our employees are subject to AIG’s Code of Conduct designed to assure that all employees perform their duties with honesty and integrity. In the second quarter of 2004, AIG adopted the AIG Director, Executive Officer, and Senior Financial Officer Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which covers such directors and officers of AIG and its subsidiaries, including us and our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer), Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer (principal accounting and financial officer). Both of these Codes appear in the Corporate Governance section ofwww.aigcorporate.com.

Forward-Looking Statements

This annual report onForm 10-K contains or incorporates statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Those statements appear in a number of places in thisForm 10-K and include statements regarding, among other matters, the state of the airline industry, our access to the capital markets, our ability to restructure leases and repossess aircraft, the structure of our leases, regulatory matters pertaining to compliance with governmental regulations and other factors affecting our financial condition or results of operations. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” and “should” and variations of these words and similar expressions, are used in many cases to identify these forward-looking statements. Any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to vary materially from our future results, performance or achievements, or those of the industry, expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Such factors include,

6

among others, general industry economic and business conditions, which will, among other things, affect demand for aircraft, availability and creditworthiness of current and prospective lessees, lease rates, availability and cost of financing and operating expenses, governmental actions and initiatives and environmental and safety requirements, as well as the factors discussed under “Item 1A.Risk Factors.” We will not update any forward-looking information to reflect actual results or changes in the factors affecting the forward-looking information.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

Risk Factors Affecting International Lease Finance Corporation

Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, as described below and in the section titled “Item 7A.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

Overall Airline Industry Risk

We operate as a supplier and financier to airlines. The risks affecting our airline customers are generally out of our control and impact our customers to varying degrees. As a result, we are indirectly impacted by all the risks facing airlines today. Our ability to succeed is dependent on the financial strength of our customers and their ability to compete effectively in the market place and manage these risks has a direct impact on us. These risks include:

•  Demand for air travel

•  Competition between carriers

•  Fuel prices and availability

•  Labor costs and stoppages

•  Maintenance costs

•  Employee labor contracts

•  Air traffic control infrastructure constraints

•  Airport access

•  Insurance costs and coverage

•  Security, terrorism and war

•  Worldwide health concerns

•  Equity and borrowing capacity

•  Environmental concerns

•  Government regulation

•  Interest rates

•  Overcapacity

To the extent that our customers are affected by these risk factors, we may experience:

•  a downward pressure on demand for the aircraft in our fleet and reduced market lease rates and lease margins;

•  a higher incident of lessee defaults, lease restructurings and repossessions affecting net income due to maintenance, consulting and legal costs associated with the repossession, as well as lost revenue for the time the aircraft are off lease and possibly lower lease rates from the new lessees;

•  a higher incident of situations where we engage in restructuring lease rates for our troubled customers which reduces overall lease revenue;

•  an inability to immediately place new and used aircraft when they become available through our purchase commitments and regular lease terminations on commercially acceptable terms, resulting in lower lease margins due to aircraft not earning revenue and resulting in payments of storage, insurance and maintenance costs; and

•  a loss if our aircraft is damaged or destroyed by an event specifically excluded from the insurance policy such as dirty bombs, bio-hazardous materials and electromagnetic pulsing.

Airframe, Engine and Other Manufacturer Risks

The supply of jet transport aircraft, which we purchase and lease, is dominated by two airframe manufacturers, Boeing and Airbus, and a limited number of engine manufacturers. As a result, we are dependent on the manufacturers’ success in remaining financially stable, producing aircraft and related components which meet the airlines’ demands, both in type and quantity, and fulfilling their contractual obligations to us. Further, competition

7

between the manufacturers for market share is intense and may lead to instances of deep discounting for certain aircraft types and may negatively impact our competitive pricing. Should the manufacturers fail to respond appropriately to changes in the market environment or fail to fulfill their contractual obligations, we may experience:

•  missed or late delivery of aircraft ordered by us and an inability to meet our contractual obligations to our customers, resulting in lost or delayed revenues, lower growth rates and strained customer relationships;

•  an inability to acquire aircraft and related components on terms which will allow us to lease those aircraft to customers at a profit, resulting in lower growth rates or a contraction in our fleet;

•  a market place with too many aircraft available, creating downward pressure on demand for the aircraft in our fleet and reduced market lease rates;

•  poor customer support from the manufacturers of aircraft and components resulting in reduced demand for a particular manufacturer’s product, creating downward pressure on demand for those aircraft in our fleet and reduced market lease rates for those aircraft; and

•  reduction in our competitiveness due to deep discounting by the manufacturers, which may lead to reduced market lease rates and may impact our ability to remarket or sell some of the aircraft in our fleet.

Borrowing Risks

Liquidity — We are dependent on our ability to borrow the necessary funds to finance the purchase of aircraft and to have sufficient funds to repay our existing debt obligations. Our liquidity is dependent on having continued access to debt markets and maintaining our credit ratings. We manage this risk by maintaining access to many debt markets throughout the world. With insufficient liquidity we could potentially experience:

•  an inability to acquire aircraft, for which we have signed contracts, resulting in lower growth, lost revenue and strained manufacturer and customer relationships; and

•  an inability to meet our debt maturities as they become due, resulting in payment defaults, non-compliance with debt covenants, reduced credit ratings and an inability to access certain debt markets.

Interest Rate Risks — We are impacted by fluctuations in interest rates. Our lease rates are generally fixed over the life of the lease. Changes, both increases and decreases, in our cost of borrowing, as reflected in our composite interest rate, directly impact our net income. We manage the interest rate volatility and uncertainty by maintaining a balance between fixed and floating rate debt, through derivative instruments and through matching debt maturities with lease maturities.

Other Risks

Failure to Remedy Material Weakness — As described below under Item 9A.Controls and Procedures, we have a material weakness in our internal controls, specifically a failure to maintain effective controls over the valuation, presentation and disclosure of derivative transactions. In 2005, we restated our consolidated financial statements for 2000 through 2004 in part as a result of deficiencies related to our documentation of hedge transactions and errors in the application of proper accounting for derivative related transactions. In 2006, we restated our consolidated financial statements as a result of using an incorrect method of effectiveness assessment on two cross-currency swaps. If we are unable to remediate this material weakness or the remediation is delayed, it will continue to create volatility in income.

Residual Value — We bear the risk of re-leasing or selling the aircraft in our fleet that are subject to operating leases at the end of their lease terms. If demand for aircraft decreases, our average fleet age may increase because of an inability to sell aircraft, and market lease rates may decrease. Should this condition continue for an extended period, it could affect the market value of aircraft in our fleet and may result in impairment charges in accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”). See “Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Critical Accounting Polices and Estimates — Flight Equipment.”

Obsolescence Risk — Aircraft arelong-lived assets requiring long lead times to develop and manufacture. As a result, aircraft of a particular model and type tend to become obsolete and less in demand over time, when newer

8

more advanced and efficient aircraft are manufactured. This life cycle, however, can be shortened by world events, government regulation or customer preferences. As aircraft in our fleet approach obsolescence, demand for that particular model and type will decrease. This may result in lease rates compressing or may result in impairment charges in accordance with SFAS 144.

Key Personnel — Our future success is dependent upon, among other things, the retention of our executive management team. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain our executive officers and other key employees. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers or key employees could disrupt our operations.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk — We negotiate some of our leases in Euros to meet the demands of a growing number of airlines. If the Euro exchange rate to the U.S. Dollar deteriorates, as it did during 2005, we will record less lease revenue on those lease payments that are not hedged.

Relationship with AIG —While neither AIG nor any of its subsidiaries is a co-obligor or guarantor of our debt securities, circumstances affecting AIG can have an impact on us. For example, concurrent with ratings actions on AIG taken by Standard & Poor’s, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (“S&P”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”), the following ratings actions were taken or statements were made with respect to our ratings: (i) S&P retained our long-term debt rating at AA- on Negative Long Term Rating Outlook and our short-term rating atA-1+, (ii) Moody’s affirmed our(A1/Stable/P-1) rating with a Stable outlook and (iii) Fitch lowered our long-term rating to A+ and short-term rating to F-1. Accordingly, we can give no assurance how further changes in circumstances related to AIG would impact us.

Accounting Pronouncements — The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in coordination with its international counterpart the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) have begun a joint project to perform a comprehensive review of the U.S. and international accounting standards related to leasing. The FASB and IASB are expected to recommend new standards that may significantly affect our financial position and results of operations and the way our customers operate in ways we are unable to determine at this time. We continue to monitor the activities of this joint project as it progresses.

Item 2.  Properties

Flight Equipment

Management frequently reviews opportunities to acquire suitable commercial jet aircraft based not only on market demand and customer airline requirements, but also on our fleet portfolio mix criteria and leasing strategies. Before committing to purchase specific aircraft, management takes into consideration factors such as estimates of future values, potential for remarketing, trends in supply and demand for the particular type, make and model of aircraft and engines, and anticipated obsolescence. As a result, certain types and vintages of aircraft do not necessarily fit the profile for inclusion in our portfolio of aircraft owned and used in our leasing operations.

At December 31, 2006, all of our fleet was Stage III compliant. This means that the aircraft hold or are capable of holding a noise certificate issued under Chapter 3 of Volume 1, Part II of Annex 16 of the Chicago Convention or have been shown to comply with the Stage III noise levels set out in Section 36.5 of Appendix C of Part 36 of the Federal Aviation Regulations of the United States. At December 31, 2006, the average age of aircraft in our fleet was 5.84 years.

As of March 1, 2007, leases covering 40 of the 43 aircraft with lease expiration dates in 2007 had been extended or leased to other customers. The schedule excludes one aircraft which was not subject to lease at December 31, 2006.

Commitments

At December 31, 2006, we had committed to purchase the following new aircraft at an estimated aggregate purchase price (including adjustment for anticipated inflation) of approximately $19.0 billion for delivery as shown below. The recorded basis of aircraft may be adjusted upon delivery to reflect notional credits given by the manufacturers in connection with the leasing of aircraft.

(a)  We have the right to designate the size of the aircraft within the specific model type at specific dates prior to contractual delivery.

(b)  Two 787-800 delivering in 2012 were options at December 31, 2006. We exercised the options in January 2007.

(c)  Airbus has informed us the A350-800 will be delayed to 2014. We are still in negotiations with Airbus to reposition our orders.

(d)  Subject to cancellation option by no later than June 30, 2010, which would reduce the total future purchase commitments.

10

We anticipate that a portion of the aggregate purchase price will be funded by incurring additional debt. The exact amount of the indebtedness to be incurred will depend, in part, upon the actual purchase price of the aircraft, which can vary due to a number of factors, including inflation. See “Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

The new aircraft listed above are being purchased pursuant to master agreements with each of Boeing and Airbus. These agreements establish the pricing formulas (which include certain price adjustments based upon inflation and other factors) and various other terms with respect to the purchase of aircraft. Under certain circumstances, we have the right to alter the mix of aircraft type ultimately acquired. As of December 31, 2006, we had madenon-refundable deposits (exclusive of capitalized interest) with respect to the aircraft which we have committed to purchase of approximately $455.0 million with Boeing and $460.0 million with Airbus.

Under arrangements with manufacturers, in certain circumstances the manufacturers establish notional accounts for our benefit, to which they credit amounts when we purchase and take delivery of and lease aircraft. Amounts credited to the notional accounts are used at our direction to protect us from certain events, including loss when airline customers default on lease payment obligations, to provide lease subsidies and other incentives to our airline customers in connection with leases of certain aircraft and to reduce our cost of aircraft purchased. The amounts credited are recorded as a reduction in flight equipment under operating leases.

As of March 1, 2007, we had entered into contracts for the lease of new aircraft scheduled to be delivered through 2015 as follows:

	Number of		Number
Delivery Year	Aircraft		Leased		% Leased
2007		83		83		100	%
2008		78		49		63	%
2009		43		6		14	%
2010		10		9		90	%
2011		10		1		10	%
Thereafter		30		0		0	%

We will need to find customers for aircraft presently on order and not subject to contract and any new aircraft ordered, and we will need to arrange financing for portions of the purchase price of such equipment. Although we have been successful to date in placing new aircraft on lease and have been able to obtain adequate financing in the past, there can be no assurance as to the future continued availability of lessees or of sufficient amounts of financing on acceptable terms.

Facilities

Our principal offices are located at 10250 Constellation Blvd., Suite 3400, Los Angeles, California. We occupy space under a lease which expires in 2015. As of March 1, 2007, we occupied approximately 127,000 square feet of office space. The lease provides for annual rentals of approximately $9 million, and the rental payments thereunder are subject to escalation provisions.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings

In connection with the January 3, 2004 crash of our737-300 aircraft on lease to Flash Airlines in Egypt, lawsuits were filed by the families of 122 of the 148 victims on the flight against us, Boeing, Honeywell International Inc., and Parker-Hannifin Corporation in the Court of First Instance at Bobigny in France. These plaintiffs have also sued Flash Airlines and its insurer in the same French court. We believe we are adequately covered in all of these cases by the liability insurance policies carried by Flash Airlines and we have substantial defenses to the actions. We do not believe the outcome of these lawsuits will have a material effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

PART II

Item 5.  Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

We are an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of AIG and our common stock is not listed on any national exchange or traded in any established market. We paid cash dividends to our parent company of $32.0 million in 2006, $37.0 million in 2005, and $35.5 million in 2004. It is our intention to pay our parent company an annual dividend of at least 7% of net income subject to the dividend preference of any preferred stock outstanding. Under the most restrictive provisions of our borrowing arrangements, consolidated retained earnings at December 31, 2006 in the amount of approximately $1.8 billion were unrestricted as to the payment of dividends.

Item 7.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview and Industry Condition

ILFC primarily acquires new jet transport aircraft from Boeing and Airbus and leases these aircraft to airlines throughout the world. In addition to our leasing activity, we sell aircraft from our leased aircraft fleet to other leasing companies, financial services companies and airlines. In some cases, we provide fleet management services to investors and/or owners of aircraft portfolios for a management fee. We have also provided asset value guarantees and loan guarantees to buyers of aircraft or to financial institutions for a fee. Additionally, we remarket and sell aircraft owned or managed by others for a fee.

As of December 31, 2006, we owned 824 aircraft, had ten aircraft in the fleet that were classified as finance leases, and provided fleet management services for 104 aircraft. We have contracted with Airbus and Boeing to buy 254 new aircraft for delivery through 2015 with an estimated purchase price of $19.0 billion, 83 of which will deliver during 2007. We anticipate the purchases to be financed in part by operating cash flows and in part by incurring additional debt.

Our sources of revenue are principally from scheduled and charter airlines and companies associated with the airline industry. The airline industry is cyclical, economically sensitive and highly competitive. Airlines and related companies may be affected by political or economic instability, terrorist activities, changes in national policy, competitive pressures, fuel prices and shortages, labor stoppages, insurance costs, recessions, and other political or economic events adversely affecting world or regional trading markets. Our revenues and income will be affected by our customers’ ability to react to and cope with the volatile competitive environment in which they operate, as well as our own competitive environment.

Despite rising fuel prices which significantly impacted the airline industry during 2005 and 2006, overall industry trends in 2005 and 2006 have shown continued improvement, and strengthening of lease rates. Although lease rates continued to strengthen through 2006, there is a lag between changes in market conditions and their impact on our results, as contracts signed during times of lower lease rates are still in effect, including a number of new aircraft that delivered in 2005 and 2006. Therefore, the improvement in the airline industry has yet to be completely reflected in our financial performance. We believe we are well positioned in the current industry environment with signed lease agreements for all of our 2007 deliveries of new aircraft as of December 31, 2006, and placement of 63% of our 2008 new aircraft deliveries as of March 1, 2007. We are also experiencing an increased level of interest from third party investor and debt providers regarding the purchase of aircraft from our fleet. During 2006, we sold 21 aircraft to third parties, two of which were in the form of sale-leaseback transactions.

We have received tax benefits under the Foreign Sales Corporation (“FSC”) law and its successor regime, the Extraterritorial Income Act (“ETI”). In October 2004, Congress passed a bill, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, repealing the corporate export tax benefits under the ETI, after the World Trade Organization (“WTO”) ruled the export subsidies were illegal. Under the bill, ETI export tax benefits for corporations were phased out in 2005 and 2006 for certain transactions. On January 26, 2006, the WTO ruled the American Jobs Creation Act fails to fully implement the recommendations from the Dispute Settlement Body as long as it includes transitional and grandfathering measures. A memo released by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) in January 2007 indicates that some contracts may be grandfathered. However, the memo notes that it cannot be relied upon and there has been no other published announcement by the IRS as to whether benefits for some contracts may continue after 2006. We expect our effective tax rate to rise to a rate consistent with the expected statutory rate as these benefits cease to exist.

We derive approximately 90% of our revenues from airlines outside of the United States. A key factor in our success has been a concentrated effort to maximize our lease placements in regions that are strengthening, such as in Asia, Europe and the Middle East, and to minimize placements in regions that are under stress.

On June 17, 2005, one of our customers, Varig S.A. (lessee of eleven aircraft), filed for bankruptcy protection under Brazilian Bankruptcy Law and in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. On July 4, 2006, all eleven leases were terminated and the aircraft were returned. All but one aircraft was subsequently placed with other airlines. We took a charge in the amount of $20.1 million related to receivables of restructured rents and initial direct costs related to Varig S.A. during 2006. The charge is included in Other expenses

13

on the December 31, 2006 Consolidated Statement of Income. We will need to remarket the remaining aircraft and we may incur costs related to the re-leasing and refurbishing of the aircraft.

In December 2006, one of our customers, Air Madrid (lessee of three aircraft), ceased operations. All aircraft leased to Air Madrid were subsequently leased to other airlines.

We have ordered 16 A350s from Airbus. Airbus has advised us of delays and a redesign of the A350 aircraft. We are currently in discussions regarding the delays of the delivery of the A350 aircraft related to the redesign of the aircraft. Due to production difficulties we have renegotiated our purchase agreement with Airbus which has resulted in delays of the deliveries to 2013 (see commitments schedule).

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue, depreciation, overhaul reserves, and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

We believe the following are our critical accounting policies, some of which require significant judgments and estimates, used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Lease Revenue: We lease flight equipment principally under operating leases and report rental income ratably over the life of the lease. The difference between the rental income recorded and the cash received under the provisions of the lease is included in “Lease receivables and other assets” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.Past-due rentals are recognized on the basis of management’s assessment of collectibility. In certain cases, leases provide for additional rentals based on usage. The usage may be calculated based on hourly usage or on the number of cycles operated, depending on the lease contract. A cycle is defined as onetake-off and landing. The usage is typically reported monthly by the lessee. Rentals received, but unearned under the lease agreements, are recorded in “Rentals received in advance” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets until earned. Lease revenues from the rental of flight equipment have been reduced by payments received directly by us or by our customers from the aircraft and engine manufacturers.

Costs related to reconfiguration of aircraft cabins and other lessee specific modifications are capitalized and amortized over the life of the lease.

Flight Equipment Marketing: We market flight equipment and recognize gains and losses when leased equipment is sold and the risk of ownership of the equipment is passed to the new owner. We also engage in marketing aircraft on behalf of independent third parties. We recognize revenue for these transactions when services are rendered and an obligation to pay exists in accordance with the contract. The portion of sales proceeds as a result of payments made to buyers directly by the aircraft manufacturers are not included in marketing revenue but are recorded as a reduction to the overall basis of the flight equipment.

Flight Equipment: Flight equipment under operating leases is stated at cost. Purchases, major additions and modifications and interest are capitalized. Normal maintenance and repairs, airframe and engine overhauls and compliance with return conditions of flight equipment returned from lease are provided for and paid for by the lessee. Generally, aircraft are depreciated using the straight line method over a 25 year life from the date of manufacture to a 15% residual value. Because of the significant cost of aircraft carried in “Flight equipment under operating leases” in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, any change in the assumption of useful life or residual values for all aircraft could have a significant impact on our results of operations.

Under arrangements with the manufacturers, in certain circumstances the manufacturers establish notional accounts for our benefit, to which they credit amounts when we purchase and take delivery of and lease aircraft. Amounts credited to the notional accounts are used at our direction to protect us from certain events, including loss

14

when airline customers default on lease payment obligations, to provide lease subsidies and other incentives to our airline customers in connection with leases of certain aircraft and to reduce our cost of aircraft purchased. The amounts credited to the notional accounts are recorded as a reduction to the basis of aircraft purchased at the time the amounts are available to us. Since cost is reduced, future depreciation is also reduced.

Out of production aircraft types are depreciated using the straight line method over a 25 year life from the date of manufacture to an established residual value for each aircraft type.

At the time assets are retired or sold, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the related accounts and the difference, net of proceeds, is recorded as a gain or loss.

Management is very active in the airline industry and reviews issues affecting our fleet on a quarterly basis, including events and circumstances that may affect impairment of aircraft values (e.g. residual value, useful life and current and future revenue generating capacity). Management evaluates aircraft in the fleet, as necessary, based on these events and circumstances in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144“Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”) at least annually. SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. These evaluations for impairment are significantly impacted by estimates of future revenues and other factors which involve some amount of uncertainty. Recoverability of assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Estimated cash flows consist of current contractual lease rates, future projected lease rates and estimated scrap values for each aircraft. The factors considered in estimating the undiscounted cash flows may change in future periods due to changes in contracted lease rates, economic conditions, technology, airline demand for a particular aircraft type and many of the risk factors discussed in Item 1A.“Risk Factors.” We have, to date, not recorded any impairment charges related to aircraft.

Provision for Overhauls: Under the provisions of many leases, we receive overhaul rentals based on the usage of the aircraft. For certain airframe and engine overhauls, the lessee is reimbursed for costs incurred up to, but not exceeding, related overhaul rentals paid by the lessee for usage of the aircraft.

Overhaul rentals are included under the caption “Rental of flight equipment” in our Consolidated Statements of Income. We provide a charge to operations for estimated future reimbursements at the time the overhaul rentals are paid by the lessee. The charge is based on overhaul rentals received and the estimated reimbursements during the life of the lease. The historical payout rate is subject to significant fluctuations. Using its judgment, management periodically evaluates the appropriateness of the reserve for these reimbursements and its reimbursement rate, and then adjusts the provision for overhauls accordingly. This evaluation requires significant judgment. If the reimbursements are materially different than our estimates, there will be a material impact on our results of operations.

Derivative Financial Instruments: In the normal course of business we utilize derivative instruments to manage our exposure to interest rate risks and foreign currency risks. We account for derivative instruments in accordance with SFAS No. 133“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended and interpreted (“SFAS 133”). Accounting for derivatives is very complex. All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value. We obtain the values on a quarterly basis from the counter party of the derivative contracts, a related party. When hedge treatment is achieved under SFAS 133, the changes in market values related to the effective portion of the derivatives are recorded in other comprehensive income or in income, depending on the designation of the derivative as a cash flow hedge or a fair value hedge. The ineffective portion of the derivative contract is calculated and recorded in income at each quarter end. At inception of the hedge, we choose a method of ineffectiveness calculation, which we must use for the life of the contract. For certain types of hedge relationships meeting specific criteria, SFAS 133 allows a “short-cut” method, which provides for an assumption of zero ineffectiveness. Under this method periodic assessment of effectiveness is not required. Our use of this method is limited to interest rate swaps that hedge certain borrowings. When the criteria for the “short-cut” method is not met, we use the “hypothetical derivative method” when we assess the ineffectiveness. The calculation involves setting up a hypothetical derivative that mirrors the hedged item, but has a zero-value at the hedge designation date. The cumulative change in market value of the actual derivative instrument is compared to the cumulative change in

15

market value of the hypothetical derivative. The difference is the calculated ineffectiveness and is recorded in income.

Income Taxes: We are included in the consolidated federal income tax return of AIG. Our tax provision is calculated on a separate return basis, adjusted to give recognition to the effects of net operating losses, foreign tax credits and the benefit of the Foreign Sales Corporation and Extraterritorial Income Exclusion provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent they are currently realizable in AIG’s consolidated return. We calculate our provision using the asset and liability approach in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. This method gives consideration to the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax rates. Deferred tax liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Financial Condition

We borrow funds to purchase new and used flight equipment (see “Item 2.Properties — Commitments”), including funds for progress payments during aircraft construction, and to pay off maturing debt obligations. The funds are borrowed principally on an unsecured basis from various sources. During 2006, we borrowed $6.4 billion (excluding commercial paper) and $2.6 billion was provided by operating activities to meet our needs. As of December 31, 2006, we had committed to purchase 254 new aircraft from Boeing and Airbus, including two options exercised in 2007, at an estimated aggregate purchase price of approximately $19.0 billion for delivery through 2015, of which we currently anticipate taking delivery of 83 aircraft in 2007 with an estimated aggregate purchase price of $5.4 billion. We currently expect to fund expenditures for aircraft and to meet liquidity needs from a combination of available cash balances, internally generated funds and financing arrangements. Our borrowing strategy will, over time, result in approximately 15% or less of our debt, excluding commercial paper, maturing in any one year. Management continues to explore new funding sources and ways to diversify our investor base. Our debt financing and capital lease obligations were comprised of the following at the following dates:

	December 31,			December 31,			December 31,
	2006			2005			2004
	(Dollars in thousands)
Public bonds and medium-term notes	$	21,317,011		$	18,503,065		$	17,516,746
Capital lease obligations		—			—			39,580
Bank term debt		3,818,688			4,014,573			2,973,525

Less: Deferred debt discount		(33,104	)		(38,882	)		(29,502	)
Total debt financing	$	28,860,242		$	26,104,165		$	23,175,596
Composite interest rate		5.24%			5.00%			4.34%
Percentage of total debt at fixed rate		78.88%			79.03%			66.21%
Composite interest rate on fixed debt		5.12%			5.03%			5.07%
Bank prime rate		8.25%			7.25%			5.25%

The above amounts represent our anticipated settlement of our outstanding debt obligations. Certain adjustments required to present currently outstanding debt obligations have been recorded and presented separately on the face of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, including adjustments related to foreign currency and interest rate hedging activities. We have eliminated the currency exposure arising from foreign currency denominated notes by either hedging the notes through swaps or through the offset provided by operating lease receipts denominated in the related currency. Foreign currency denominated debt is translated into U.S. Dollars using exchange rates as of each balance sheet date. The foreign exchange adjustments for the foreign currency denominated debt economically hedged with foreign currency swaps were $677.4 million, $197.1 million and $1,215.8 million at December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively. Composite interest rates and the percentage of total debt at fixed rates reflect the economic effect of derivative instruments.

Public Debt

The Company has the ability to borrow under various public debt financing arrangements as follows:

	Maximum			Issued as of		Issued as of
	Offering			December 31, 2006		March 1, 2007
	(Dollars in millions)
Registration statement dated August 16, 2006 (including $5.0 billion Medium-Term Note Program)		Unlimited	(a)	$	1,900	$	2,500
Registration statement dated December 20, 2002 (including $2.88 billion Medium-Term Note Program and $1.0 billion Retail Medium-Term Note Program)	$	6,080	(b)		5,782		5,816
Euro Medium-Term Note Programme dated September 2006(c)(d)		7,000			4,276		4,276

(a)  Includes $645 million, which was incorporated into the registration statement from a prior registration statement. As a result of our Well Known Seasoned Issuer (“WKSI”) status, we have an unlimited amount of debt securities registered for sale.

(b)  Includes $1.08 billion, which was incorporated into the registration statement from a prior registration statement, increasing the maximum offering from $5.0 billion to $6.08 billion.

(c)  We have economically hedged the foreign currency risk of the notes through derivatives or through the offset provided by operating lease payments denominated in the related currency.

(d)  This is a perpetual program. As a bond issue matures, the principal amount of that bond becomes available for new issuances under the program.

Bank Term Debt

In January 1999, we entered into an Export Credit Facility, for up to a maximum of $4.3 billion, for aircraft delivered through 2001. We used the facility to fund 85% of each aircraft’s purchase price. The facility was guaranteed by various European Export Credit agencies. We financed 62 aircraft using $2.8 billion under this facility over ten years with interest rates from 5.753% to 5.898%. The debt is collateralized by a pledge of the shares of a subsidiary of ours which holds title to the aircraft financed under the facility. At December 31, 2006, $1.0 billion was outstanding under this facility.

In May 2004, we entered into an Export Credit Facility for up to a maximum of $3.64 billion, to finance Airbus aircraft to be delivered through May 2007. The facility is used to fund 85% of each aircraft’s purchase price. This facility becomes available as the various European Export Credit agencies provide their guarantees for aircraft based on a six-month forward-looking calendar. The financing is for a ten-year fully amortizing loan per aircraft at an interest rate determined through a bid process. We have collateralized the debt by a pledge of the shares of a subsidiary which holds title to the aircraft financed under this facility. As of December 31, 2006, 31 aircraft were financed under this facility and $1.7 billion was outstanding.

From time to time we enter into funded bank financing agreements. As of December 31, 2006, we had a total of $1.2 billion outstanding, which have varying maturities through 2012. The interest rates are LIBOR based with spreads ranging from .300% to 1.625% at December 31, 2006.

Junior Subordinated Debt

In December of 2005, ILFC entered into two tranches of junior subordinated debt totaling $1.0 billion. Both mature on December 21, 2065, but each tranche has a different call option. The $600 million tranche has a call date of December 21, 2010 and the $400 million tranche has a call date of December 21, 2015. The note with the 2010 call date has a fixed interest rate of 5.90% for the first five years. The note with the 2015 call date has a fixed interest rate of 6.25% for the first ten years. Both tranches have interest rate adjustments if the call option is not exercised.

17

The new interest rate is a floating quarterly reset rate based on the initial credit spread plus the highest of (i) 3 month LIBOR,(ii) 10-year constant maturity treasury and(iii) 30-year constant maturity treasury.

Commercial Paper

We currently have a $6.0 billion Commercial Paper Program. Under this program, we may borrow a minimum of $100,000 for periods from one day to 270 days. It is our intention to only sell commercial paper to a maximum amount of 75% of the total amount of the backup facilities available (see“Bank Commitments” below). The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding commercial paper was 5.30%, 4.17% and 2.34%, at December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively.

Bank Commitments

As of December 31, 2006, we had committed revolving credit agreements with an original group of 35 banks aggregating $6.5 billion, consisting of a $2.0 billion five-year tranche that expires in October of 2009, a $2.0 billion five-year tranche that expires in October of 2010 and a $2.5 billion five-year tranche that expires in October 2011. These revolving credit agreements provide for interest rates that vary according to the pricing option in effect at the time of borrowing. Pricing options include prime, a range from .25% over LIBOR to 1.85% over LIBOR based upon utilization, or a rate determined by a competitive bid process with the banks. The revolving credit agreements are subject to facility fees of .10% of amounts available. This financing is used as backup for our maturing debt and other obligations. We expect to replace or extend these credit agreements on or prior to their expiration dates. At December 31, 2006, we had not drawn on these facilities.

Other Variable Interest Entities

We have sold aircraft to entities owned by third parties and from time to time we have issued asset value guarantees or loan guarantees related to the aircraft sold. We have determined that ten such entities, each owning one aircraft, are Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) in which we are deemed the primary beneficiary. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretations (“FIN”) No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN46R”), we consolidate these entities. The assets and liabilities of these entities are presented separately on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not have legal control over and we do not own the assets, nor are we directly obligated for the liabilities of these entities.

We have contributed an aircraft to a joint venture (“JV”) that leases the aircraft to a third party. We have determined that the JV is a VIE, but we are not the primary beneficiary and we do not consolidate the entity.

We have not established any other unconsolidated entities for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We have, however, from time to time established subsidiaries, entered into joint ventures or created other partnership arrangements with the limited purpose of leasing aircraft or facilitating borrowing arrangements.

Derivatives

In the normal course of business, we employ a variety of derivative products to manage our exposure to interest rates risks and foreign currency risks. We enter into derivative transactions only to economically hedge interest rate risk and currency risk and not to speculate on interest rates or currency fluctuations. These derivative products include interest rate swap agreements and currency swap agreements. At December 31, 2006, we had the following derivative contracts that did not qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS 133:

•  Two foreign currency swaps economically hedging our interest rate risk and currency risk of our Euro denominated debt, which do not qualify because we had chosen an incorrect method to calculate ineffectiveness.

•  A foreign currency swap failed the assessment of hedge effectiveness test, as defined by SFAS 133, in the fourth quarter of 2006. Ineffectiveness was created due to large swings in the Sterling exchange rate and the inclusion of cash flows in the retrospective effectiveness assessment. SFAS 133 allows the exclusion of cash flows and we will evaluate the derivative for effectiveness as of April 1, 2007, and if the derivative meets the test, we intend to redesignate it as a FAS 133 hedge.

When a derivative contract does not qualify for hedge treatment under SFAS 133, the changes in market values are recorded in income. The related net mark-to-market gain reported in income for the year ended December 31,

18

2006 was $36.8 million, consisting of a gain of $284.0 million related to derivatives, and a loss of $247.2 million related to mark-to-spot changes of the Euro debt related to the foreign exchange swap contracts. (See Note K ofNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

When interest rate and foreign currency swaps are effective as accounting hedges under the technical requirements of SFAS 133, they offset the variability of expected future cash flows or changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, both economically and for financial reporting purposes. We have historically used such instruments to effectively mitigate foreign currency and interest rate risks. The effect of our inability to apply hedge accounting for the swaps is that changes in their fair values must be recorded in earnings each reporting period. As a result, reported net income will be directly influenced by changes in interest rates and currency rates.

The counterparty to our derivative instruments is AIG Financial Products Corp. (“AIGFP”), a related party. The derivatives are subject to a bilateral security agreement which, in certain circumstances, may allow one party to the agreement to require the second party to the agreement to provide collateral. Failure of the instruments or counterparty to perform under the derivative contracts will have a material impact on our results of operations.

Common Stock

During the year ended December 31, 2005, we issued 3,069,604 shares of our common stock to an existing shareholder for approximately $400 million. AIG has no obligation to contribute additional equity.

Market Liquidity Risks

We are in compliance with all covenants or other requirements set forth in our credit agreements. Further, we do not have any rating downgrade triggers that would automatically accelerate the maturity dates of our debt. However, a downgrade in our credit rating could adversely affect our ability to borrow on, renew existing, or obtain access to new financing arrangements and would increase the cost of such financing arrangements. For example, a downgrade in credit rating could reduce our ability to issue commercial paper under our current program.

While we have been able to borrow the funds necessary to finance operations in the current market environment, turmoil in the airline industry or political environment could limit our ability to borrow funds from our current funding sources. Should this occur, we would seek alternative sources of funding, including securitizations and manufacturer’s financings, drawings upon our revolving loans and lines of credit facilities or seek additional short term borrowings. If we were unable to obtain sufficient funding, we may be able to negotiate with manufacturers to defer deliveries of certain aircraft.

The following summarizes our contractual obligations at December 31, 2006 and the possible effect of such obligations on our liquidity and cashflows in future periods.

Results of Operations

2006 Compared to 2005

Revenues from rentals of flight equipment increased 14.4% to $3,984.9 million in 2006 from $3,482.2 million in 2005. The number of aircraft in our fleet increased to 824 at December 31, 2006 compared to 746 at December 31, 2005. Revenues from rentals of flight equipment increased (i) $502.5 million due to aircraft acquired and earning revenue during the entire period, or part thereof, in 2006 compared to no or partial earned revenue for the same period in 2005. The increase was offset by (ii) $35.7 million of lost revenue on aircraft repossessed from airlines under bankruptcy protection and $19.5 million related to aircraft deployed during the period ended December 31, 2005 and sold prior to December 31, 2006. Overhaul revenue increased $55.4 million in 2006 compared to 2005 due to an increase in the aggregate number of hours flown, on which we collect overhaul revenue. We had one aircraft in our fleet that was not subject to a signed lease agreement or a signed letter of intent at December 31, 2006.

In addition to leasing operations, we engage in the marketing of our flight equipment throughout the lease term, as well as the sale of third party owned flight equipment on a principal and commission basis. Revenues from flight equipment marketing increased to $71.4 million in 2006 compared to $66.7 million in 2005 due to higher revenues related to equipment sold in 2006 compared to 2005. We sold 21 aircraft, two of which were accounted for as sale-lease-back transactions, and four engines during the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to 29 aircraft, eleven of which were accounted for as sale-leaseback transactions, and three engines during the same period in 2005.

Interest and other revenue increased to $86.3 million in 2006 compared to $61.4 million in 2005 due to (i) an increase in fees and deposit forfeitures due to non-performance by customers in the amount of $10.0 million; (ii) lower 2006 charges related to reserves for asset value guarantees and other fee based services in the amount of $7.9 million; (iii) an increase in foreign exchange gain in the amount of $8.6 million; and (iv) an increase in interest income in the amount of $4.8 million. These increases were offset by lower revenue from VIE’s of $6.4 million.

Interest expense increased to $1,469.7 million in 2006 compared to $1,164.4 million in 2005 as a result of (i) an increase in average debt outstanding (excluding the effect of debt discount and foreign exchange adjustments),

20

primarily borrowed to finance aircraft acquisitions, to $27.5 billion in 2006 compared to $24.7 billion in 2005 and (ii) an increase in interest rates.

Our composite borrowing rates fluctuated as follows:

ILFC Composite Interest Rates and Prime Rates

We account for derivatives under SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities” as amended. Income effect from derivatives, net of change in hedged items due to changes in foreign exchange rates was $49.7 million and $46.1 million income for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The income effect includes income from derivatives with no hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133 in the amount of $40.7 million in 2006 and $48.7 million in 2005 (see Note K ofNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Depreciation of flight equipment increased 14.4% to $1,570.3 million in 2006 compared to $1,372.1 million in 2005 due to the increased cost of the fleet to $47.2 billion in 2006 from $42.1 billion in 2005.

Provision for overhauls decreased to $249.2 million in 2006 compared to $260.0 million in 2005 due to a decrease in expected overhaul related expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $148.1 million in 2006 compared to $135.8 million in 2005 due to (i) a charge in the amount of $9.1 million related to a Canadian court ruling (see Note J ofNotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements), and (ii) an increase of $6.9 million in 2006 employee related expenses compared to 2005, primarily due to an increase in employee benefit charges from AIG and an increase in the number of employees from 160 to 172; offset by minor savings in the amount of $3.7 million.

Other expenses consist of the following charges:

•  (2006) $20.1 million related to a notes receivable write-down related to a lessee under bankruptcy protection

•  (2005) $38.3 million related to the restructuring of ownership of aircraft in certain lease transactions in Australia (see Note J ofNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements), and $11.7 million related to a write-down of notes receivable in 2005.

21

Our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2006 was 30.3% compared to 35.0% for the same period in 2005. The decrease is due to audit adjustments and related interest charged in 2005, offset by a larger 2006 tax benefit received under the Extraterritorial Income Act.

In 2002 and 2003 we participated in certain tax planning activities with our parent, AIG and related entities, which provided certain tax and other benefits to the AIG consolidated group. As a result of our participation in these activities, AIG shared a portion of the tax benefits of these activities attributable to us, which aggregated $245.0 million. We are required to repay those tax benefits to AIG in 2007 and 2009. The liability is recorded in “Tax benefit sharing payable to AIG” in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was $2.7 million and $66.4 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005, primarily due to changes in market values of cashflow hedges. See Note E ofNotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We performed impairment reviews of all aircraft in our fleet as of June 30, 2006 and 2005, in accordance with SFAS 144. No impairments have been recognized related to aircraft, as the existing service potential of the aircraft in our portfolio has not been diminished. Further, we have been able to re-lease the aircraft without diminution in lease rates to an extent that would warrant an impairment write down.

2005 Compared to 2004

Revenues from rentals of flight equipment increased 17.8% to $3,482.2 million in 2005 from $2,955.5 million in 2004. The number of aircraft in our fleet increased to 746 at December 31, 2005 compared to 667 at December 31, 2004. Revenues from rentals of flight equipment increased (i) $465.9 million due to aircraft acquired and earning revenue during the entire period, or part thereof, in 2005 compared to no or partial earned revenue for the same period in 2004 and (ii) $22.8 million related to aircraft that were redelivered during the years at higher lease ratesand/or had changes in lease rates. The increase was offset by $81.2 million related to aircraft deployed during the period ended December 31, 2004 and sold prior to December 31, 2005. Overhaul revenue increased $119.2 million in 2005 compared to 2004 due to an increase in the aggregate number of hours flown, on which we collect overhaul revenue. We did not have any aircraft in our fleet that were not subject to a signed lease agreement or a signed letter of intent at December 31, 2005.

In addition to leasing operations, we engage in the marketing of our flight equipment throughout the lease term, as well as the sale of third party owned flight equipment on a principal and commission basis. Revenues from flight equipment marketing decreased to $66.7 million in 2005 compared to $77.7 million in 2004 due to $17.5 million less commissions received from third parties in 2005 compared to 2004. The decrease was offset by higher revenues related to equipment sold in 2005 compared to 2004. We sold 29 aircraft and three engines during the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to 15 aircraft and ten engines during the same period in 2004.

During 2004 we sold 34 aircraft to a trust, which is included in the consolidated financial statements of AIG (see Note M ofNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The gains of the transaction, net of expenses, are included in the caption “Flight equipment marketing — securitization.”

Interest and other revenue decreased to $61.4 million in 2005 compared to $93.8 million in 2004 due to the following: (i) lower bankruptcy and other settlements in the amount of $23.1 million; (ii) lower dividend income by $3.4 million; (iii) lower fees and deposit forfeitures due to nonperformance by customers in the amount of $10.2 million and other minor decreases in the amount of $1.3 million; offset by a charge taken in 2004 related to put options exercised in the amount of $5.6 million.

Interest expense increased to $1,164.4 million in 2005 compared to $936.5 million in 2004 as a result of (i) an increase in average debt outstanding (excluding the effect of debt discount and foreign exchange adjustments), primarily borrowed to finance aircraft acquisitions, to $24.7 billion in 2005 compared to $22.5 billion in 2004 and (ii) an increase in interest rates.

We account for derivatives under SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities” as amended. Income effect from derivatives, net of change in hedged items due to changes in foreign exchange rates was $46.1 million income and $6.0 million loss for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The income

22

effect includes income from derivatives with no hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133 in the amount of $48.7 million in 2005 and $5.5 million in 2004 (see Note K ofNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Depreciation of flight equipment increased 13.0% to $1,372.1 million in 2005 compared to $1,214.0 million in 2004 due to the increased cost of the fleet from $36.6 billion in 2004 to $42.1 billion in 2005.

Provision for overhauls increased to $260.0 million in 2005 compared to $164.3 million in 2004 due to (i) an increase in the aggregate number of hours flown on which we collect overhaul revenue and against which the provision is computed and (ii) an increase in actual and expected overhaul related expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $135.8 million in 2005 compared to $117.0 million in 2004 due to (i) a net change in the amount of $6.7 million related to the write down of a notes receivable from a customer who has filed for bankruptcy protection; (ii) an increase of $6.5 million in 2005 employee related expenses compared to 2004, primarily due to an increase in employee benefit charges from AIG and an increase in the number of employees from 151 to 160 and (iii) $13.1 million higher aircraft cost to support our growing fleet. The increases were offset by $3.9 million lower rent expense due to a 2004 charge related to abandoned office space and minor savings in several areas aggregating $3.6 million.

Other expenses consist of the following charges:

•  (2005) $38.3 million related to the restructuring of ownership of aircraft in certain lease transactions in Australia. See Note J ofNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements and $11.7 million related to a write-down of notes receivable.

•  (2004) In connection with a global aircraft lease transaction entered into in 2000 for a total of 14 aircraft, we acquired certain securities and assumed certain obligations of ATA. On October 26, 2004, ATA filed for bankruptcy protection and we recorded impairment losses in the amount of $28.9 million on our investment in ATA non-voting preferred stock and a $25.0 million charge for the assumed liabilities.

Our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2005, was 35.0% compared to 30.8% for the same period in 2004. The increase is due to audit adjustments and related interest identified by AIG during an audit of its consolidated tax returns for prior periods and charged to us in the fourth quarter of 2005 under our tax sharing agreement with AIG. The charge was partly offset by a larger tax benefit received in 2005 under the Extraterritorial Income Act.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Measuring potential losses in fair values has recently become the focus of risk management efforts by many companies. Such measurements are performed through the application of various statistical techniques. One such technique is Value at Risk (VaR), a summary statistical measure that uses historical interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices and estimates the volatility and correlation of these rates and prices to calculate the maximum loss that could occur over a defined period of time given a certain probability.

23

We believe that statistical models alone do not provide a reliable method of monitoring and controlling market risk. While VaR models are relatively sophisticated, the quantitative market risk information generated is limited by the assumptions and parameters established in creating the related models. Therefore, such models are tools and do not substitute for the experience or judgment of senior management.

We are exposed to market risk and the risk of loss of fair value and possible liquidity strain resulting from adverse fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange prices. We statistically measure the loss of fair value through the application of a VaR model on a quarterly basis. In this analysis the net fair value of our operations is determined using the financial instrument assets and other assets and liabilities. This includes tax adjusted future flight equipment lease revenues and financial instrument liabilities, which includes future servicing of current debt. The estimated impact of current derivative positions is also taken into account.

We calculate the VaR with respect to the net fair value by using historical scenarios. This methodology entailsre-pricing all assets and liabilities under explicit changes in market rates within a specific historical time period. In this case, the most recent three years of historical information for interest rates and foreign exchange rates were used to construct the historical scenarios at December 31, 2006 and 2005. For each scenario, each financial instrument isre-priced. Scenario values for our operations are then calculated by netting the values of all the underlying assets and liabilities. The final VaR number represents the maximum adverse deviation in net fair market value incurred by these scenarios with 95% confidence (i.e. only 5% of historical scenarios show losses greater than the VaR figure). A one month holding period is assumed in computing the VaR figure. The following table presents the average, high and low VaRs on a combined basis and of each component at market risk for our operations with respect to its fair value for the periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively:

ILFC Market Risk

	December 31, 2006						December 31, 2005
	Average		High		Low		Average		High		Low
	(Dollars in millions)
Combined	$	151.5	$	208.7	$	102.3	$	135.0	$	238.7	$	84.2
Interest Rate		151.3		208.0		102.2		135.4		240.3		83.9
Currency		0.9		1.6		0.3		2.1		4.2		0.5

The Value at Risk calculation reflects the fact that we currently have more financial liabilities (debt) than financial assets (present value of lease payments). Lengthening the average maturity of our debt increases the calculated VaR. During 2006, we locked in lower long-term funding costs on its debt, leading to an increase in its VaR.

Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

The response to this Item is submitted as a separate section of this report.

Item 9.   Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures

(A) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and the Vice Chairman, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer (collectively the “Certifying Officers”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, including the Certifying Officers, recognizes that any set of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

24

Based on our evaluation as of December 31, 2006, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to a material weakness in internal controls as described below. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The following material weakness has not been fully remediated as of December 31, 2006:

We did not maintain effective controls over the valuation, presentation and disclosure of derivative transactions. Specifically, we did not maintain adequate documentation regarding the effectiveness of certain derivative transactions used to hedge interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risk and did not select the correct methodology to measure the ineffectiveness in the hedging relationship of two cross currency swaps. This control deficiency resulted in a misstatement of the 2005 financial statement line items (Derivative assets, Derivative liabilities, Accumulated other comprehensive income and Interest expense) and resulted in a restatement of our annual and interim 2005 financial statements. Accordingly, management concluded this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

Variable Interest Entities

Our consolidated balance sheets include assets in the amount of $124.7 million and $138.2 million and liabilities in the amount of $8.2 million and $65.2 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and we recorded a net loss of $7.5 million in 2006, a net gain of $1.8 million in 2005 and a net loss of $4.1 million in 2004 related to Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”). Our assessment of disclosure controls and procedures, as described above, includes the VIEs. Each of the VIEs has a discrete number of assets and we, as lender and guarantor to the VIEs, have been provided sufficient information to conclude that our procedures with respect to these VIEs are effective in providing reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us relating to these entities is reconciled, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Certifying Officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, management has been unable to assess the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting at those entities, due to our inability to dictate or modify the controls of those entities, or to assess those controls.

(B) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except as described below under “(C) Remediation of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting” during the year ended December 31, 2006, no changes were made to internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

(C) Remediation of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As of December 31, 2006, we have begun, but have not completely remediated the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to accounting for derivative instruments as discussed above. The remediation actions include improving training, accounting reviews and reconciliations, all designed to ensure that all relevant personnel involved in derivatives transactions understand and apply hedge accounting in compliance with SFAS 133. During our remediation efforts, we found errors related to designations of methodologies used to calculate ineffectiveness of two derivative contracts. In coordination with AIG’s remediation efforts related to derivative transactions, we will work closely with AIG to identify processes and procedures which will assist us in remediating our material weakness with respect to derivative transactions.

25

The process and control improvements described above in this Item 9A are the only changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have occurred during the period covered by this report that would have a material effect, or are reasonably likely to have a material affect on our internal control over financial reporting. We will continue to assess our controls and procedures and will take any further actions that we deem necessary.

We believe that our Consolidated Financial Statements fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition results of operations and cash flows as of, and for, the periods presented and that this Annual Report onForm 10-K contains no material inaccuracies or omissions of material fact and contains the information required to be included in accordance with the Exchange Act.

Item 9B. Other Information

None.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To The Shareholders and Board of Directors

of International Lease Finance Corporation:

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of International Lease Finance Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands)

Note A — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization:  International Lease Finance Corporation (the “Company,” “ILFC,” “management,” “we,” “our,” “us”) is primarily engaged in the acquisition of new commercial jet aircraft and the leasing of those aircraft to airlines throughout the world. In addition to our leasing activity, we regularly sell aircraft from our leased aircraft fleet and aircraft owned by others to third party lessors and airlines and in some cases provide fleet management services to these buyers. In terms of the number and value of transactions concluded, we are a major owner-lessor of commercial jet aircraft.

Parent Company:  ILFC is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”). AIG is a holding company which through its subsidiaries is primarily engaged in a broad range of insurance and insurance-related activities in the United States and abroad. AIG’s primary activities include both general and life insurance and retirement services operations. Other significant activities include financial services and asset management.

Principles of Consolidation:  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts, accounts of all other entities in which we have a controlling financial interest, as well as accounts of variable interest entities in which we are the primary beneficiary as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46(R) “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46(R)”). Investments in equity securities in which we have more than a 20% interest, but do not have a controlling interest and are not the primary beneficiary, are carried under the equity method of accounting. Investments in which we have less than a 20% interest are carried at cost.

Intercompany Allocations and Fees:  We are party to cost sharing agreements with AIG. Generally, these agreements provide for the allocation of corporate costs based upon a proportional allocation of costs to all subsidiaries. We also pay AIG a fee related to management services provided for certain of our foreign subsidiaries. We earned management fees from two trusts consolidated by AIG for the management of aircraft we have sold to the trusts.

Our financial statements include the following related party charges (income) recorded for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004:

	2006			2005			2004
Allocation of corporate costs from AIG	$	7,507		$	8,050		$	3,029
Management services paid to AIG		643			587			550
Management fees received from trusts consolidated by AIG		(9,618	)		(9,833	)		(10,209	)

Lease receivables and other assets included $444 and $34 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, related to the management of those aircraft.

Lease Revenue:  We lease flight equipment principally under operating leases and report rental income ratably over the life of the lease. The difference between the rental income recorded and the cash received under the provisions of the lease is included in “Lease receivables and other assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Past-due rentals are recognized on the basis of management’s assessment of collectibility. In certain cases, leases provide for additional rentals based on usage. The usage may be calculated based on hourly usage or on the number of cycles operated, depending on the lease contract. A cycle is defined as one take-off and landing. The lessee typically reports the usage to us monthly.

Lease revenues from the rental of flight equipment have been reduced by payments received by our customers from the notional accounts established by the aircraft and engine manufacturers.

Rentals received but unearned under the lease agreements are recorded in “Rentals received in advance” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets until earned.

Note A — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Costs related to reconfiguration of the aircraft cabin and other lessee specific modifications are capitalized as pre-paid lease cost and amortized over the life of the lease.

Initial Direct Costs:  We treat as period costs internal and other costs incurred in connection with identifying, negotiating and delivering aircraft to our lessees. Amounts paid by us to lessees, or other third parties, in connection with lease transactions are capitalized and amortized against Lease revenue over the initial non-cancelable term of the related lease.

Flight Equipment Marketing:  We market flight equipment both on our behalf and on behalf of independent third parties. Marketing revenues include all revenues from such operations consisting of net gains on sales of flight equipment and commissions. We recognize gains on sales when flight equipment is sold and the risk of ownership of the equipment is passed to the new owner. The portion of sales proceeds as a result of payments made to buyers directly by the aircraft manufacturers are not included in marketing revenue but are recorded as a reduction to the overall basis of the flight equipment.

Provision for Overhauls:  Under the provisions of many leases, we receive overhaul rentals based on the usage of the aircraft. For certain airframe and engine overhauls, we reimburse the lessee for costs incurred up to, but not exceeding, related overhaul rentals that the lessee has paid to us for usage of the aircraft.

Overhaul rentals are included under the caption “Rental of flight equipment” in the Consolidated Statements of Income. We provide a charge to operations for estimated reimbursements at the time the lessee pays the overhaul rentals based on overhaul rentals received and the estimated reimbursements during the life of the lease. Management periodically evaluates the reserve for these reimbursements and the reimbursement rate, and adjusts the provision for overhauls accordingly.

Cash:  Cash includes cash on hand and time deposits. Our financing agreements do not restrict the use of cash collected related to overhaul rentals or cash security deposits held.

Foreign Currency:  Cash balances denominated in foreign currencies are translated into USD using the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are recognized in the period incurred and are included in “Interest and other” on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Flight Equipment:  Flight equipment under operating leases is stated at cost. Purchases, major additions and modifications and interest on deposits during the construction phase are capitalized. The lessee provides and pays for normal maintenance and repairs, airframe and engine overhauls, and compliance with return conditions of flight equipment on lease.

We generally depreciate aircraft, including aircraft acquired under capital leases, using the straight-line method over a 25 year life from the date of manufacture to a 15% residual value. When an aircraft is out of production, management evaluates the aircraft types and depreciates the aircraft using the straight line method over a 25 year life from the date of manufacture to an established residual value for each aircraft type.

Under arrangements with manufacturers, in certain circumstances the manufacturers establish notional accounts for the benefit of ILFC, to which amounts are credited by them in connection with the purchase by and delivery to ILFC and the lease of aircraft. The amounts credited to the notional accounts are recorded as a reduction to the basis of aircraft purchased and charged to other assets.

At the time assets are retired or sold, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the related accounts and the difference, net of proceeds, is recorded as a gain or loss.

Management evaluates aircraft in the fleet, as necessary, based on these events and circumstances in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”). SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for

Note A — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. These evaluations for impairment are significantly impacted by estimates of future revenues and other factors which involve some amount of uncertainty.

Capitalized Interest:  We borrow funds to finance progress payments for the construction of flight equipment ordered. We capitalize interest incurred on such borrowings. This amount is calculated using our composite borrowing rate and is included in the cost of the flight equipment.

Deferred Debt Issue Costs:  We incur debt issue costs in connection with debt financing. Those costs are deferred and amortized over the life of the debt using the interest method and charged to interest expense.

Derivative Financial Instruments:  In the normal course of business, we utilize derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to interest rate risks and foreign currency risks. We account for derivatives in accordance with SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended (“SFAS 133”). All derivatives are carried at fair value. We obtain our market values on a quarterly basis from AIG Financial Products Corporation (“AIGFP”), a related party. We apply either fair value or cash flow hedge accounting when transactions meet specified criteria for hedge accounting treatment. If the derivative does not qualify for hedge accounting, the gain or loss is immediately recognized in earnings. If the derivative qualifies for hedge accounting and is designated and documented as a hedge, the gain or loss on the mark-to-market of the derivative is either recognized in income along with the change in market value of the item being hedged for fair value hedges, or deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) to the extent the hedge is effective for cash flow hedges. Cash flows paid and received on all derivative instruments are recorded in interest expense. We reclassify final settlements on derivative instruments to financing activities in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow.

We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items at inception of the hedge, as well as risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions. This includes linking all derivatives that are designated as fair value, cash flow, or foreign currency hedges to specific assets or liabilities on the balance sheet. We also assess (both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis) whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flow of hedged items and whether those derivatives may be expected to remain highly effective in future periods. For certain types of hedge relationships meeting specific criteria, SFAS 133 allows a “shortcut” method, which provides for an assumption of zero ineffectiveness. Under this method, the periodic assessment of effectiveness is not required. Our use of this method is limited to interest rate swaps that hedge certain borrowings. When the “short-cut” method is not allowed, we use the “hypothetical derivative method” when we assess the ineffectiveness. When it is determined that a derivative is not (or has ceased to be) highly effective as a hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting, as discussed below.

We discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when (1) we determine that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of a hedged item; (2) the derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised; or (3) management determines that designating the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.

In all situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued and the derivative remains outstanding, we carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheet, recognizing changes in the fair value in current-period earnings. The remaining balance in AOCI at the time we discontinue hedge accounting is amortized into income over the remaining life of the derivative contract.

Variable Interest Entities: We consolidate variable interest entities in accordance with FIN 46(R). The variable interest entities that we consolidate consist of ten entities, to which we have sold aircraft and we have determined we are the primary beneficiary. The entities are owned by third parties and we provided financing or

38

Note A — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

guaranteed third party financing to those entities. Each of the entities owns one aircraft each. The financing agreements are collateralized by the aircraft. Assets in the amount of $124,734 and $138,277 and liabilities in the amount of $8,175 and $65,197 are included in our 2006 and 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheets and net expenses (revenues) in the amounts of $7,500, $(1,777) and $4,093 are included in our Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss): We report comprehensive income or loss in accordance with SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.” Our other comprehensive income (loss) reported in shareholders’ equity as Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) consists of gains and losses associated with changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with SFAS 133 and unrealized gains on marketable securities classified as “available-for-sale.”

Guarantees: We account for guarantees in accordance with FIN No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” The fair value of guarantees entered into after December 31, 2002 are included in “Accrued interest and other payables” on the 2006 and 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Income Taxes:  We are included in the consolidated federal income tax return of AIG. Our provision for federal income taxes is calculated, on a separate return basis adjusted to give recognition to the effects of net operating losses, foreign tax credits and the benefit of the Foreign Sales Corporation (“FSC”) and Extraterritorial Income Exclusion (“ETI”) provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent they are currently realizable in AIG’s consolidated return. Income tax payments are made pursuant to a tax payment allocation agreement whereby AIG credits or charges us for the corresponding increase or decrease (not to exceed the separate return basis calculation) in AIG’s current taxes resulting from our inclusion in AIG’s consolidated tax return. Intercompany payments are made when such taxes are due or tax benefits are realized by AIG.

The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries are included in the combined state unitary tax returns of AIG, including California. We also file separate returns in certain other states, as required. The provision for state income taxes is calculated, generally on a separate return basis giving effect to the AIG unitary rate and credits and charges allocated to us by AIG, based upon the combined filings and the resultant current tax payable.

We calculate our provision using the asset and liability approach in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. This method gives consideration to the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax rates. Deferred tax liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Current income taxes on the balance sheet principally represent amounts receivable or payable from/to AIG under the tax sharing agreements. Interest and penalties, when applicable, is included in the provision for income taxes.

Stock-based Compensation: In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”). This standard is a revision of SFAS No. 123 “Accounting forStock-Based Compensation” and supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R requires allshare-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. The cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the options. We participate in AIG’s share-based payment programs. Effective January 1, 2006, AIG adopted SFAS 123R using the modified prospective application method. This method provides for the recognition of the fair value with respect to share-based compensation for shares subscribed for or granted on or after January 1, 2006, and all previously granted but unvested awards as of January 1, 2006, and they allocate our share of the calculated costs to us. AIG’s

Note A — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

adoption of SFAS 123R and its related interpretive guidance on January 1, 2006, did not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. See Note I ofNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications:  Certain amounts have been reclassified in the 2005 and 2004 financial statements to conform to our 2006 presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements:  In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157,Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). The standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurement that require or permit fair value measurements. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, January 1, 2008 for us. We do not believe that adoption of this statement will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48,Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109(“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, January 1, 2007 for us. We do not expect the implementation of FIN 48 to be material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) AUG AIR-1,Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities.The FSP addresses the accounting for planned major maintenance activities and amends AICPA Industry Audit Guide,Audits of Airlines, and APB Opinion No. 28,Interim Financial Reporting. The FSP prohibits the use of theaccrue-in-advance method of accounting for planned major activities. The FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, January 2007 for us. The adoption of the FSP will have no effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2006, the FASB issued FSP FIN 46(R)-6,Determining the Variability to be Considered in Applying FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“FIN 46(R)-6” or “FSP”). The FSP affects the identification of which entities are variable interest entities (VIEs) through a “by design” approach in identifying and measuring the variable interest of the VIE and its primary beneficiary. The requirements became effective in the third quarter of 2006 and are to be applied to all new VIEs with which ILFC becomes involved. The new requirements need not to be applied to entities that have previously been analyzed under FIN 46(R) unless a reconsideration event occurs. The adoption of this guidance did not have any effect on ILFC’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R) (“SFAS 158”). This standard covers an employer’s accounting for defined benefit postretirement plans sponsored for employees and requires that an employer that sponsors one of more defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans recognize an asset or liability for the overfunded or underfunded status of the defined benefit postretirement plan. Further, employers will record all unrecognized prior service costs and credits and unrecognized actuarial gains and losses in Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. Amounts recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income will be adjusted as they are subsequently recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost pursuant to

the recognition and amortization provisions of SFAS 87 and 106. Prior period financial statements will not be retroactively adjusted and the calculation of the annual expense is unchanged. The statement also requires an employer to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the employer’s statement of financial position. SFAS 158 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 31, 2006, January 1, 2007 for us. Our employees participate in various benefit plans sponsored by AIG, including a noncontributory qualified defined benefit retirement plan, and post retirement health and welfare plans. Related plan expenses are allocated to the Company by AIG. AIG’s adoption of this guidance will not have a material effect on ILFC’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“FAS 159”). FAS 159 permits entities to chose to measure at fair value many financial instruments and certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value for designated items will be required to be reported in earnings in the current period. FAS 159 also establish presentation and disclosure requirements for similar types of assets and liabilities measured at fair value. FAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently assessing the effect of implementing this guidance, which depends on the nature and extent of items elected to be measured at fair value, upon initial application of the standard on January 1, 2008.

Commercial Paper

We have a $6,000,000 Commercial Paper Program. Under this program, we may borrow in minimum increments of $100 for a period from one day to 270 days. The weighted average interest rate of our outstanding commercial paper was 5.30% and 4.17% at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Bank Commitments

At December 31, 2006 we had committed revolving credit agreements with 35 banks aggregating $6,500,000, consisting of a $2,000,000 five-year tranche that expires in October of 2009, a $2,000,000 five-year tranche that expires in October of 2010 and a $2,500,000 five-year tranche that expires in October 2011.

options include prime, a range from .25% over LIBOR to 1.85% over LIBOR based upon utilization, or a rate determined by a competitive bid process with the banks. The revolving credit facilities are subject to facility fees of .10% of amounts available. This financing is used as backup for our maturing debt and other obligations. We had not drawn any funds under our committed revolving credit facilities at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Public Bonds and Medium-Term Notes

As of December 31, 2006, we had two effective U.S. shelf registration statements and a Euro Medium-Term Note Programme:

	Maximum		Issued as of
	Offering		December 31, 2006
Registration statement dated August 16, 2006 (including $5.0 billion Medium-Term Note Program)		Unlimited	$	1,900,000
Registration statement dated December 20, 2002 (including $2.88 billion Medium-Term Note program and $1.0 billion Retail Medium-Term Note Program)	$	6,080,000		5,782,000
Euro Medium-Term Note Programme dated September 2006(a)		7,000,000		4,276,000

(a)  This is a perpetual program. As a bond issue matures, the principal amount of that bond becomes available for new issuances under the program.

We issue bonds and medium-term notes. At December 31, 2006, we had $21,317,011 outstanding with maturities ranging from 2007 to 2013 and interest rates ranging from 3.32% to 6.98%. At December 31, 2005, we had $18,503,065 outstanding with maturities ranging from 2006 to 2013 and interest rates ranging from 2.95% to 6.98%. The bonds and medium-term notes provide for a single principal payment at the maturity of the respective note and cannot be redeemed prior to maturity. At December 31, 2006 and 2005 we had floating rate notes aggregating $4,795,250 and $3,997,850 and the remainder were at fixed rates. To the extent deemed appropriate we enter into derivative transactions to manage our effective borrowing rates with respect to floating rate notes.

At December 2006 and 2005 bonds and medium-term notes included $4,331,448 and $4,978,700 notes issued under our $7,000,000 Euro Medium-Term Note Program (€3.35 billion and £300 million in 2006 and €3.95 billion and £300 million, in 2005). The program is perpetual. As a bond issue matures, the principal amount of that bond becomes available for new issuances under the program. We have eliminated the currency exposure arising from the notes by either economically hedging the notes through swaps or through the offset provided by operating lease payments denominated in Euros. We translate the debt into U.S. Dollars using current exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. The foreign exchange adjustment for the foreign currency denominated notes was $677,402 and $197,074 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Bank Term Debt

In January 1999, we entered into an Export Credit Facility for up to a maximum of $4,327,260, for up to 75 aircraft to be delivered from 1999 through 2001. We had the right, but were not required, to use the facility to fund 85% of each aircraft’s purchase price. This facility is guaranteed by various European Export Credit Agencies. The interest rates varies from 5.753% to 5.898% depending on the delivery date of the aircraft. We financed 62 aircraft using approximately $2,800,000 and at December 31, 2006 and 2005, $948,098 and $1,232,272 was outstanding under this facility. We have collateralized the debt by a pledge of the shares of a subsidiary which holds title to the aircraft financed under this facility.

In May 2004, we entered into an Export Credit Facility for up to a maximum of $3,643,660, for Airbus aircraft to be delivered through May 2007. At December 2006, 31 aircraft were financed under the facility. The facility was used to fund 85% of each aircraft’s purchase price. This facility became available as the various European Export Credit Agencies provided their guarantees for aircraft based on a six-month forward-looking calendar. The financing is for a ten-year fully amortizing loan per aircraft at an interest rate determined through a bid process. We have collateralized the debt by a pledge of the shares of a subsidiary which holds title to the aircraft financed under this facility. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, we had $1,711,840 and $1,383,551 outstanding under this facility.

We have entered into funded bank financing agreements. At December 2006 and 2005 we had totals of $1,158,750 and $1,398,750 outstanding with varying maturities through 2012. One tranche of one of the loans totaling $410,000 was funded in Japanese yen and swapped to U.S. Dollars. The tranche had matured at December 31, 2006. The interest rates are LIBOR based with spreads ranging from .300% to 1.625% at December 31, 2006.

Junior Subordinated Debt

In December 2005, we entered into two tranches of junior subordinated debt totaling $1,000,000. Both mature on December 21, 2065, but each tranche has a different call option. The $600,000 tranche has a call date of December 21, 2010 and the $400,000 tranche has a call date of December 21, 2015. The note with the 2010 call date has a fixed interest rate of 5.90% for the first five years. The note with the 2015 call date has a fixed interest rate of 6.25% for the first ten years. Both tranches have interest rate adjustments if the call option is not exercised. The new interest rate is a floating quarterly reset rate based on the initial credit spread plus the highest of (i) 3 mo LIBOR,(ii) 10-year constant maturity treasury and(iii) 30-year constant maturity treasury.

Maturities of debt financing (excluding commercial paper and deferred debt discount) at December 31, 2006 are as follows:

2007	$	4,104,151
2008		4,371,948
2009		4,046,133

(a)  During the fourth quarter of 2005, we were advised of certain IRS and other adjustments identified in the U.S. Consolidated AIG tax return which were attributable to our operations. Under our tax sharing arrangement, we were charged for the effect of the adjustments and the related interest attributable to our operations.

We have certain foreign subsidiaries which are treated as branches for U.S. income tax purposes. We have not provided any foreign deferred tax liabilities with respect to these foreign branch operations, as any future foreign tax attributable to these foreign branch operations will be offset by fully realizable foreign tax credits.

In October 2004, Congress passed the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, repealing the corporate export tax benefits under the ETI, after the World Trade Organization (“WTO”) ruled the export subsidies were illegal. Under the act, ETI export tax benefits for corporations would be phased out in 2005 and 2006 for certain transactions. On January 26, 2006, the WTO ruled the American Jobs Creation Act fails to fully implement the recommendations from the Dispute Settlement Body as long as it includes transitional and grandfathering measures. A memo released by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) in January 2007 indicates that some contracts may be grandfathered. However, the memo notes that it cannot be relied upon and there has been no other published announcement by the IRS as to whether benefits for some contracts may continue after 2006. We expect our effective tax rate to rise to a rate consistent with the expected statutory rate as these benefits cease to exist.

In 2002 and 2003, we participated in certain tax planning activities with our parent, AIG and related entities, which provided certain tax and other benefits to the AIG consolidated group. As a result of our participation in these activities, AIG shared a portion of the tax benefits of these activities attributable to us which aggregated $245,000. We are required to repay $160,000 in 2007 and $85,000 in 2009 to AIG. The liability is recorded in “Tax benefit sharing payable to AIG” in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Note H — Other Information

Concentration of Credit Risk

We lease and sell aircraft to airlines and others throughout the world. The lease and notes receivables are from entities located throughout the world. We generally obtain deposits on leases and obtain collateral in flight equipment on notes receivable. We had one customer (an operator with its own operating certificate), Air France (lease revenues of approximately $364,600 or 10.5% in 2005 and $309,500 or 10.5% in 2004), which accounted for 10% or more of Rental of flight equipment revenue. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenues in 2006.

2006 revenues from rentals of flight equipment includes $31,727 (0.8% of total revenue) from lessees who have filed for bankruptcy protection.

Segment Information

We operate within one industry: the leasing, sales and management of flight equipment.

Revenues include rentals of flight equipment to foreign airlines of $3,604,495 in 2006, $3,095,612 in 2005, and $2,662,182 in 2004. Lease revenues from the rental of flight equipment have been reduced by payments received by our customers from the aircraft and engine manufacturers.

The following table sets forth the dollar amount and percentage of total rental revenues attributable to the indicated geographic areas based on each airline’s principal place of business for the years indicated:

Currency Risk

We attempt to minimize our currency and exchange risks by negotiating most of our aircraft leases in U.S. Dollars. Some of our leases, however, are negotiated in Euros to meet the needs of a growing number of airlines. We have hedged the majority of future lease payments receivable through 2010. The remainder of Euro denominated leases receivable are partly used as an economic hedge against $40,000 of our Euro denominated debt obligations maturing in 2007. We bear risk of receiving less U.S. Dollar rental revenue on lease payments not hedged and incurring future currency losses on cash held in Euros if the value of the Euro deteriorates against the U.S. Dollar.

Transaction with Affiliate

We purchased an aircraft from an affiliate in 2006 for fair market value determined by an independent appraiser.

The SICO Board of Directors currently may permit an early payout of units under certain circumstances.

•  AIG2005-2006 Deferred Compensation Profit Participation Plan (“AIG DCPPP”)

The AIG DCPPP provides equity-based compensation to key employees of AIG and its subsidiaries. The AIG DCPPP is modeled on the SICO Plans.

•  AIG Partners Plan

Certain key employees of AIG and its subsidiaries can be granted compensation by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors under the Partners Plan. On June 26, 2006, the Compensation Committee approved two grants for performance based Restricted Stock Units for performance periods January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2007 and January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2008. Both grants vest 50 percent on the fourth and ninth anniversaries of the first day of the related performance period. In addition, the Compensation Committee approved the performance metrics for the two grants prior to the date of grant.

•  ILFC Deferred Compensation Plan

ILFC employees participate in the ILFC deferred compensation plan, which is a plan independent of AIG. At the time of the grant, the employees choose to receive AIG stock or cash at the vesting date. The vesting period is three years after the grant date. The grant is forfeited at termination of employment.

•  ILFC Long-Term Incentive Plan

Senior ILFC employees participate in the ILFC Long-Term Incentive Plan, which is a plan independent of AIG. At the time of the grant employees receive a cash award. The pay-out of the cash award will vary depending on the performance of ILFC during the vesting period. The performance period is three years. The grant is forfeited at termination of employment.

Effective January 1, 2006, AIG adopted the fair value recognition provision of SFAS 123R, “Share-Based Payment.” Under SFAS 123R, we recorded compensation expenses of $3,637 for the year ended December 31, 2006, for our participation in AIG’s share-based payment programs and $1,161 for our deferred compensation and long-term incentive plans. Under SFAS 123, we recorded compensation expenses of $3,247 for our participation in AIG’s share-based payment programs and income of $3,009 for our deferred compensation plan for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Note J — Commitments and Contingencies

Aircraft Orders

At December 31, 2006, we had committed to purchase 254 new aircraft, including two options that were exercised in 2007, scheduled to deliver from 2007 through 2015 at an estimated aggregate purchase price (including adjustment for anticipated inflation) of approximately $19,042,000 subject to a reduction due to any cancellations. All of these purchase commitments to purchase new aircraft are based upon master agreements with each of The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) and Airbus S.A.S. (“Airbus”).

The Boeing aircraft (models 737, 747, 777 and 787), and the Airbus aircraft (models A318, A319, A320, A321, A330, A340, A350 and A380) are being purchased pursuant to agreements executed by us and Boeing or Airbus. These agreements establish the pricing formulas (which include certain price adjustments based upon inflation and other factors) and various other terms with respect to the purchase of aircraft. Under certain circumstances, we have the right to alter the mix of aircraft type ultimately acquired. As of December 31, 2006, we had made non-refundable deposits (exclusive of capitalized interest) on the aircraft which we have committed to purchase of approximately $455,000 and $460,000 with Boeing and Airbus, respectively.

Management anticipates that a portion of the aggregate purchase price for the acquisition of aircraft will be funded by incurring additional debt. The exact amount of the indebtedness to be incurred will depend upon the actual purchase price of the aircraft, which can vary due to a number of factors, including inflation, and the percentage of the purchase price of the aircraft which must be financed.

Asset Value Guarantees

We have guaranteed a portion of the residual value of 22 aircraft to financial institutions. These guarantees expire at various dates through 2014 and generally provide for us to pay the difference between the fair market value of the aircraft and the guaranteed value up to certain specified amounts, or, at our option, purchase the aircraft for the guaranteed value. At December 31, 2006, the maximum exposure if we were to pay under such guarantees was $125,596 for the 22 aircraft. In addition, we have written put options for 11 aircraft in the amount of $343,550. Management regularly reviews the underlying values of the collateral aircraft, to determine the exposure under these guarantees and options. A $600, $8,500 and $5,600 loss related to certain exercised put options is included in interest and other on our Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively. We have adopted FIN 45 for guarantees entered into after December 31, 2002. Guarantees in the amounts of $11,041 and $10,037 are included in “Accrued interest and other payables” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Other Guarantees

We had guaranteed loans at December 31, 2006, collateralized by aircraft. As a result of our adoption of FIN 46, we consolidate all but one of the entities with loan guarantees collateralized by aircraft. Assets in the amount of $124,735 and $138,277 and liabilities in the amount of $8,175 and $65,197 related to these entities are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The loan balance of the entity that is not consolidated was $35,517 and $39,232 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

We had guaranteed obligations to ATA in connection with a global aircraft lease transaction entered into in 2000 for a total of 14 aircraft. In 2004, we recorded a charge to income in the amount of $25,026 related to the guarantee after ATA filed for bankruptcy on October 26, 2004. The liability is in the form of a derivative to which we became a counterparty. Net payments made/received were recorded in income and the derivative was reported in our 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value. We terminated the derivative in 2006.

Stand by Lines of Credit

We have extended unsecured lines of credit to two entities in the amount of $60,000. At December 31, 2006, one of the entities had drawn $10,000 on its unsecured line of credit. The amount is included in “Notes receivable” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Leases

We have operating leases for office space and office equipment extending through 2015. Rent expense was $9,359 in 2006, $9,333 in 2005, and $13,216 in 2004. Commitments for minimum rentals under the noncancelable leases at the end of 2004 are as follows:

2007	$	8,956
2008		9,303
2009		9,594

Contingencies

On June 9, 2006, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled in favor of various Canadian airport authorities and NAV Canada against aircraft owners of Canada 3000’s (“C3”) fleet, for charges incurred but not paid by C3 prior to its bankruptcy in November 2001. We posted letters of credit of approximately CAD$10.0 million which constituted about 110% of the amount which had been allocated to the ILFC owned and managed aircraft to cover navigation and landing charges and related costs. A charge in the amount of $9,100 related to the matter is included in Selling, general and administrative in our 2006 Consolidated Statement of Income.

In connection with the January 3, 2004 crash of our 737-300 aircraft on lease to Flash Airlines in Egypt, lawsuits filed by the families of 122 of the 148 victims on the flight against us, Boeing, Honeywell International Inc and Parker-Hannifin Corporation in the Court of First Instance at Bobigny in France. These plaintiffs have also sued Flash Airlines and its insurer in the same French court. We believe we are adequately covered in all of these cases by the liability insurance policies carried by Flash Airlines and we have substantial defenses to the actions. We do not believe the outcome of these lawsuits will have a material effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

Between December 2001 and March 2003, we restructured the ownership of aircraft in certain lease transactions in Australia. The Australian Tax Office (“ATO”) has investigated how the goods and services tax laws of Australia (“GST”) relate to these transactions. In September 2004, we filed a Summons in the Supreme Court of New South Wales seeking declaratory relief affirming our positions on the technical GST aspects of the restructurings. In April 2005, the ATO issued their final compliance report and assessments against both ILFC Australia (“ILFCA”) and Interlease Aircraft Trading (“IATC”), both wholly owned subsidiaries of ILFC and parties to the restructuring. The assessments were made for the full tax credits claimed, including penalties and interest against both parties. Our request for declaratory relief was dismissed as a result of the assessments issued. In November 2005, our appeal of the dismissal was denied. Management believes that there are substantial arguments in support of our position and we have appealed the assessments. In January 2006, the ATO began recovery proceedings against ILFCA to collect the outstanding assessments, and have initiated activities to stay the recovery proceeding and settle the matter. A charge in the amount of $38,275 is included in “Other expenses” in our 2005 Consolidated Statement of Income. In March 2006, we reached an agreement in principle to settle all outstanding matters with the ATO. The settlement approximates amounts accrued as of December 31, 2005.

We are also a party to various other claims and matters of litigation incidental to the normal course of our business. We believe that the final resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Note K — Derivative Financial Instruments

In the normal course of business, we employ a variety of derivative transactions with the objective of lowering our overall borrowing cost, maintaining an optimal mix of variable and fixed rate interest obligations and managing our foreign currency exchange rate risk. These derivative products include interest rate and currency swap agreements. We enter into derivative transactions only to economically hedge interest rate and currency risk and not to speculate on interest rates or currency fluctuation.

All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value and the change in fair value is recorded in income or accumulated other comprehensive income depending on the designation of the hedge. Where hedge accounting is not achieved pursuant to SFAS 133, the change in fair value of the derivative is recorded in income.

Note K — Derivative Financial Instruments (Continued)

in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) under cash flow hedge accounting in connection with the Company’s program to convert debt from floating to fixed rates.

Credit risk exposure arises from the potential that the counterparty may not perform under these derivative transactions. The counterparty for all of our derivatives is AIGFP, a related party. The derivatives are subject to a bilateral security agreement which, in certain circumstances, may allow one party to the agreement to require the second party to the agreement to provide collateral. We executed $0, $2,790,419 and $1,780,582 notional amount of derivative instruments with AIGFP during 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Failure of AIGFP to perform under the agreement with respect to these transactions would have a material effect on our results of operations.

Note L — Fair Value Disclosures

We used the following methods and assumptions in estimating our fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash:  The carrying value reported on the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value.

Notes receivable: The fair values for notes receivable are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using one-month LIBOR plus 2.5%, except for certain floating rate notes where carrying value approximates fair market value.

Debt Financing: The carrying value of our commercial paper, floating rate term debt and term debt maturing within one year approximates its fair value. The fair value of ourlong-termfixed-rate debt is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on our spread to U.S. Treasury bonds for similar debt atyear-end.

Derivatives: Fair values were based on the use of AIGFP valuation models that utilize among other things, current interest, foreign exchange and volatility rates, as applicable.

Guarantees: As of December 31, 2006, our maximum commitment under the guarantees was $125,596. It is not practical to determine the fair value of such guarantees. Management regularly reviews the underlying values of the collateral aircraft, to determine the exposure under these guarantees. We have adopted FIN 45 for guarantees entered into after December 31, 2002. Guarantees are included in “Accrued interest and other payables” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note M — Flight Equipment Marketing — Securitization

We sold 37 aircraft to a trust during the third quarter of 2003 for approximately $1.0 billion. The trust was primarily funded and owned by other subsidiaries of AIG and is consolidated by AIG. We do not consolidate the trust, nor do we consolidate the subsidiaries. The transaction was structured similar to a securitization, in which the trust acquired the aircraft based on values assigned by independent appraisers. Further, an unaffiliated third party acted as capital market advisor and initial purchaser of the notes of the securitization.

On January 14, 2004, we sold 34 aircraft to a different trust for approximately $1.0 billion. The 2004 transaction is structured similarly to the 2003 transaction, and the trust is consolidated by AIG.

We recorded gains, net of expenses, in the amount of $32,854 in 2004 related to the transactions. The gains are included in “Flight equipment marketing — securitization” in our 2004 Consolidated Statements of Income. We continue to manage the aircraft sold to the trusts for a fee. We recorded management fees in the amounts of $9,618 in 2006, $9,833 in 2005 and $10,209 in 2004 related to management services provided to the trusts. $444 and $34 accounts receivable related to the management of those aircraft is included in “Lease receivables and other assets” on our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Note N — Flight Equipment Rent

We sold two aircraft in 2006, which were accounted for as sale-leaseback transactions. We prepaid the total contracted lease payments. The prepaid lease payments will be charged to Flight Equipment Rent ratably over the lease-back period. Prepaid rent in the amount of $108,532 is included in Lease Receivables and other assets. Flight Equipment Rent includes the recognition of rent expense related to the year ended December 31, 2006. We will charge $18,000 to Flight Equipment Rent for each of the years 2007 through 2012, and the remainder will be charged in 2013.
