PARIS — U.S.-based aircraft leasing company Intrepid Aviation Group has signed nonbinding commitments to buy 20 Airbus A330-200F freighters, the European aircraft maker said Monday

Airbus, a unit of European Aeronautic Defense and Space Co., launched its freighter version of the A330 passenger jet last year.

Subject to their confirmation by Intrepid _ which is owned by New York-based Reservoir Capital Group _ the first of the freighters will be delivered from early 2010, Airbus said.
