TES Aviation Group is the global solution in aircraft engine asset management services for investors, owners and operators of mid to large thrust aircraft engines.
TES Aviation Group was established in 1995 providing professional, independent aircraft engine maintenance management services, and delivering cost effective technical, commercial and logistic management for aircraft engine portfolios. TES quickly attracted a high profile client base that included UK start-up airlines such as easyJet, as well as more established international operators – TNT, Channel Express.
