A record 353 attendees gathered at Engine Leasing, Trading & Finance Europe 2026 for two days of focused content and intimate networking opportunities. On 10-11 June 2026 at the Hilton Bankside in London, global aircraft engine leasing and maintenance leaders convened once again to navigate the challenges of the current market environment. With unpredictable oil prices, shifting engine valuations and lease rates, geopolitical tensions reshaping trade dynamics, and ongoing supply chain constraints, the event offered a vital opportunity for the industry’s leaders to unite, share insights, and cultivate business relationships essential for navigating these uncertain times. A special thanks to our host sponsor elfc, our premium sponsors CFM, IAI and SES Ltd, and our sponsor Rolls-Royce & Partners Finance, as well as our speakers, exhibitors and delegates for their contribution to this record-breaking event!

“Well managed event with a good level of attendees from across the industry, all of whom were happy to share their thoughts and views with each other.”

“This conference is the most valuable for Engine and Parts Trading. Right sizing for networking, very good balance of topics and quality of the attendees.”

David Louzado, Head of Technical, Investec Bank Plc

Guillaume Justamon, CEO, Rose Engines

Key Takeaways

100% MRO Sector Expansion The MRO industry continues to demonstrate robust growth, with Turkish Technic planning a significant capacity expansion from approximately 65 maintenance bays to around 120, reflecting strong market demand and strategic investment in infrastructure.

Engine Maintenance Capacity Constraints

Evolving Commercial Dynamics and Transparency

Engine servicing remains a critical bottleneck across the sector. Whilst Turkish Technic’s new Trent engine facility represents a positive development, the extended timeline to reach full operational capacity—not anticipated until 2036— underscores the persistent challenges in scaling engine MRO capabilities to meet industry requirements.

There is growing industry acceptance of premium pricing structures, coupled with an increasing recognition that transparency is essential for sustainable partnerships. Both operators and MRO providers acknowledge that cost/time pressures can be effectively managed when all stakeholders maintain open communication and clear visibility across the supply chain.

“The right people, in the right place, at the right time. The event brings together the core industry figures in a format which allows for informal discussion and exchange of ideas & opportunities.” Bruce Ansell, Technical Manager, APOC Aviation
