By Sara Rosenberg
New York, Oct. 17 – Wesco Aircraft Holdings Inc. is scheduled to hold a bank meeting at 10 a.m. ET in New York on Monday to launch a $600 million seven-year covenant-lite term loan B, according to a market source.
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., BofA Securities, Inc., Jefferies LLC, Barclays, BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Goldman Sachs Bank USA and HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. are the bookrunners on the deal.

Upon completion, Wesco will be combined with Platinum Equity portfolio company Pattonair, a U.K.-based provider of supply chain management services for the aerospace and defense industries.
Closing is expected by year-end, subject to Wesco shareholder approval, regulatory clearances and other customary conditions.
Wesco is a Valencia, Calif.-based distributor and provider of supply chain management services to the aerospace industry.
