Our first summer season at Antalya and Istanbul is complete.

In June we announced operations at two airports in Türkiye, in collaboration with our Turkish partner IMRO Aviation Solutions and under our EASA Part-145 approval:

• Antalya Airport, the busiest airport on Türkiye's Mediterranean coast
• Istanbul Airport, one of the world's leading international aviation hubs

The IATA summer season ended on 24 October. Thank you to our partners at IMRO Aviation Solutions.

The contacts are on the last slide. Save it for your 2027 planning.

This week, our Chief Commercial Officer Nuri Civinti represented Dedalus Aviation Services at MRO Europe 2026 in Amsterdam.

MRO Europe puts operators, lessors and maintenance organisations in the same hall for a few days. For a company whose work is continuing airworthiness and maintenance support, those conversations are where the real work starts.

It was another successful MRO Europe for DAS. Thank you to our customers and colleagues, and to everyone who took the time to talk with Nuri at RAI Amsterdam.

If we did not get to meet this week, the conversation does not have to wait for the next show.

Our Chief Commercial Officer Mr. Nuri Civinti will be at MRO Europe 2026 in Amsterdam, 28 to 29 October.

If you would like to talk about maintenance support, our operations in Eurasia at Dedalus Aviation Services, send him a message here or on WhatsApp (+90 543 615 1601) and let's find a time at RAI Amsterdam.

Looking forward to the conversations.

Our work ends with a signature. Theirs starts with a clearance.

When the certificate of release to service is signed, the aircraft is serviceable. It is not yet moving. From the first taxi to the last approach, it is in the hands of air traffic controllers who will never see the paperwork, and whose only contact with the aircraft is a voice on the frequency.

Today, 20 October, is the International Day of the Air Traffic Controller. The date marks the founding of IFATCA, the controllers' federation, in 1961.

Every aircraft we release goes into their hands. To the controllers who work the airspace around our stations in Greece and Türkiye, and at every centre in between: thank you.

If you have ever waited for a clearance on an aircraft an engineer had just signed off, repost this and thank them too.

Some of the most useful meetings happen standing up, in a hangar.

Our managers visited our stations and the hangar at Kolchiko, near Thessaloniki, to meet the team and spend the day on site. Walk the hangar, stand with the people who do the work, talk about the work.

At DAS, management belongs on the floor regularly, not only when something goes wrong. It is how you learn what the team needs, and it is how a safety culture stays real.

Hangar A2, Kolchiko. Thank you to the team for the day.

Good, cheap, fast: pick two.

Most industries can live with any of the three combinations.
Ours can only live with two.

Good and cheap takes time.
Fast and good costs more.
Cheap and fast does not get a Certificate of Release to Service.

At DAS, we will always talk with you about time and cost. Airworthiness is not on the table.

Which two did your operation ask for this week? ✈️

06/10/2026

How'd y'all become aircraft mechanics?

Cars, a pilot dream that cost too much, the Air Force, the salary ads, or someone in the family already in the industry.

Be honest, which one was it? Tell us in the comments and tag a mechanic who needs to confess.

An aircraft can be fully repaired and still not be allowed to fly.

What releases it is a signature: the Certificate of Release to Service (CRS).

The CRS confirms that the work was carried out properly, to the applicable maintenance data, and that the aircraft is ready to return to service.

Under EASA rules it is issued by authorised certifying staff, and the signature is personal. It carries the certifying engineer's name and authorisation, and it weighs the same at 3am as it does at 3pm.

Get it right and the aircraft goes back into operation with a complete, traceable record behind it. Get it wrong and an aircraft is flying on a release that does not match the work done.

For operators, the CRS is the point where maintenance stops being a process and becomes someone's name.

What aviation term should we break down next?

23/09/2026

Nobody thanks a maintenance team for a flight that went exactly as planned.

That is the whole point.

Every panel opened, every torque value checked, every finding recorded ends up as
something a passenger never notices. A normal departure. An on-time arrival. A landing
nobody remembers.

Behind that ordinary day is a technician inside a nacelle working through a task card,
and an engineer who will not release the aircraft until it is right.

Not just maintenance.

At DAS, that is how we approach every aircraft in our care.
Airworthiness is not a document produced at the end of a job. It is a decision someone
takes, by name, every time.

Continued or continuing airworthiness: which one is actually your responsibility?

The two words get used interchangeably, including by people who are contractually
responsible for one of them. They are not the same thing, and they do not belong to
the same organisation.

Continued airworthiness belongs to the design. It covers:

◆ The type certificate holder, not the operator
◆ The aircraft type, not your individual tail number
◆ Service Bulletins, repair designs and design changes
◆ The Airworthiness Directive, once the Agency mandates it

Continuing airworthiness belongs to the aircraft. It covers:

◆ The owner, or the operator in commercial air transport
◆ Your aircraft, serial number by serial number
◆ The maintenance programme, and the evaluation of every AD and SB against your fleet
◆ The records, and the airworthiness review behind every ARC

One keeps the design safe. The other keeps your aircraft safe. The Airworthiness
Directive is the exact point where one becomes the other: the design organisation
writes it, and your CAMO decides what it means for the aircraft parked on your stand
tonight.

Only one of those two is a responsibility you can delegate. Continued airworthiness
stays with the people who designed the aircraft. Continuing airworthiness stays with
you, and a CAMO carries it on your behalf. That is the side Dedalus Aviation Services
works on.

Behind Every Safe Landing.

To the CAMO managers reading this: from the moment an AD is published, how long does
it take you to know whether it touches your fleet? Same day, or same week?
