Revenues
 
Revenues are comprised primarily of operating lease rentals on flight equipment held for lease. In addition, we recognize revenue from retained maintenance payments related to lease expirations. Typically, our aircraft are subject to net operating leases whereby the lessee pays rentals and is generally responsible for maintaining the aircraft and paying operational, maintenance and insurance costs, although in a majority of cases we are obligated to pay a portion of specified maintenance or modification costs. The amount of rent we receive depends on various factors, including the type, size and age of the aircraft in our portfolio. Lease payments are typically denominated in U.S. dollars. Lease rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Our aircraft lease agreements generally provide for the periodic payment of a fixed amount of rent over the life of the lease. However, the amount of rent we receive may vary due to several factors, including the credit worthiness of our lessees and the occurrence of delinquencies and defaults. Our lease rental revenues are also affected by the extent to which aircraft are off-lease and our ability to remarket aircraft that are nearing the end of their leases in order to minimize their off-lease time. Our success in re-leasing aircraft is affected by market conditions relating to our aircraft and by general industry trends. An increase in the percentage of off-lease aircraft or a reduction in lease rates upon remarketing would negatively impact our revenues.

Revenues:
 
Total revenues increased by 52.9% or $201.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2007, primarily as a result of the following:
 
Lease Rentals.  The increase in lease rentals of $208.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007 was primarily due to the effect of a full year of lease rental revenue for the aircraft acquired during 2007 and lease rental revenue related to aircraft acquired in 2008. Also contributing to the increase was revenue from maintenance payments related to scheduled lease expirations and lease expirations following customer bankruptcies in the amount of $34.5 million that was recognized during 2008.
 
Interest Income.  The decrease in interest income of $7.2 million was primarily due to the sale of two of our debt investments in February 2008, which we owned during the year ended December 31, 2007.

Revenues

Revenues in our Aircraft Leasing segment are comprised of operating lease rentals on flight equipment held for lease. The amount of rent we receive depends on various factors, including the type, size and age of the aircraft in our portfolio. Lease rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Our aircraft lease agreements generally provide for the periodic payment of a fixed amount of rent over the life of the lease. However, the amount of rent we receive may vary due to several factors, including the credit worthiness of our lessees and the occurrence of delinquencies and defaults. Our lease rental revenues are also affected by the extent to which aircraft are off-lease and our ability to remarket aircraft that are nearing the end of their leases in order to minimize their off-lease time. Our success in re-leasing aircraft is affected by market conditions relating to our aircraft and by general industry trends. An increase in the percentage of off-lease aircraft or a reduction in lease rates upon remarketing would negatively impact our revenues.

Revenues in our Aircraft Leasing segment for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $28.6 million as compared to $173.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. Our revenues increased significantly from 2005 to 2006 as a result of aircraft acquisitions in 2006 which caused our aircraft fleet to grow from 31 aircraft at December 31, 2005 to 68 aircraft (excluding one aircraft reclassified as held-for-sale) at December 31, 2006, all of which were on-lease.

Revenues in our Debt Investments segment are recognized using the effective interest method. Certain investments which represent residual interests are accounted for using a level yield methodology based upon a number of cash flow assumptions that are subject to uncertainties and contingencies. Such assumptions include the rate and timing of principal and interest. Revenues in our Debt Investments segment for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $3.0 million as compared to $9.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2006.
