DUBLIN, Dec 7 (Reuters) - Major aircraft lessors including Aercap and BOC Aviation, and Avolon on Monday told the Irish High Court that they do not oppose a petition for extended creditor protection by Norwegian Air and some of its subsidiaries. Norwegian last month asked the court to begin a so-called examinership legal process as the carrier seeks to stave off collapse amid the coronavirus pandemic. The lessors told a hearing on Monday that they were neutral on Norwegian’s petition. (Reporting by Conor Humphries in Dublin; Additional reporting by Terje Solsvik in Oslo; editing by Louise Heavens)
