A Full Service, Maintenance Check Flight Specialised Operations Organisation

Technical Flight Solutions is a full service Specialised Operations Organisation focusing on the area of maintenance check flights, demonstration flights, delivery flights and customer acceptance flights.

Technical Flight Solutions was born out of the recently introduced EASA regulations surrounding the conduct of Maintenance Check Flights (Part NCC and Part SPO.SPEC.MCF)

  • TFS offers an end-to-end package to airlines, lessors and Maintenance Repair Operations for technical flights requiring aviation authority approval.
  • TFS provides trained flight crew, full operations support and MCF aviation authority schedule acceptance under the umbrella of our SPO.

Our aim is to be the number one Operator in providing maintenance check flight services to customers worldwide.

Our mission statement is simple:
