Our Mission:
When we started Blade Turbines, it wasn’t because the aviation industry needed another leasing company. It was because operators needed a better way to lease.
Between the two of us, we’ve spent over 30 years in aviation—Darryl specializing in turboprop, commuter, and regional operations, and Mikhel in rotary wing operations. We’ve worked against the clock, solved problems mid-crisis, and seen how traditional leasing systems often fail operators when they need help the most. Slow turnarounds. Unclear contracts. Rigid commitments.
We built Blade Turbines to change that. Our mission is simple: make engine leasing fast, transparent, and reliable.
We focus 100% on leasing engines. No bundled extras. No hidden fees. No runaround. Every cost is laid out upfront, and every engine goes through its own airworthiness quality checks, so you know exactly what you’re getting. And when you need flexibility, our contracts adapt to your operation, not the other way around.
We’re building Blade Turbines to be the company we wish we could’ve called back then: fast turnarounds, dependable engines, flexible leases, and long-term asset management to keep your operation running smoothly.
It’s engine leasing, simplified.
