There When It Counts

Milestone Aviation is an unrelenting team of experts who draws on its vast global resources and deep expertise in helicopter operations and asset management to create long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships for operators of all sizes.

Founded in 2010 by aviation and leasing industry veterans, our team was first to establish global long-term helicopter leasing as an alternative financing option for an underserved sector that lacked access to capital.

In 2021, AerCap acquired GECAS and as part of the transaction, Milestone Aviation became an AerCap company. As the market leader in aircraft, engine, and helicopter leasing, AerCap is a powerful aerospace company that is fully committed to all its customers and the industry segments in which they operate. This scale has added unparalleled financial strength and stability, as well as 50 years of aviation and leasing experience to our already strong team. Pushing past traditional leasing and finance programs, we can now offer comprehensive short-term lease options, long-term asset management programs and flexibility—not available anywhere else in the industry.

Now the leader in every industry category, we refuse to settle. Instead, our legacy will be defined by how much higher we can lift our customers’ businesses.
