Ishka Trading Summit: Midlife, Engines & Parts is a forum dedicated to dealmaking around midlife and end-of-life assets. Connecting engine lessors, aircraft asset managers, MRO shops, operators and more, it is a must attend for those looking to maximise returns in this highly complex portion of the value chain. Given the relatively high returns possible in this sector, it is also an opportunity for our investor community to gain an expert insight into the highly technical, but lucrative side of the industry.

Director of Engines
Wasim joined AJW Group in January 2019 as a Senior Powerplant Engineer at the company’s headquarters in Slinfold, UK. His expertise and leadership quickly earned him promotions, first to Technical Project Manager, then to Engine Services Manager, and now to Director of Engines.
With extensive experience collaborating with airlines, OEMs, and MROs, Wasim specialises in trading, fleet management, technical support during acquisitions, cost modelling, piece part sales, repairs, deliveries and redeliveries, lease management, contract and technical document reviews, compliance assessments, and shop visit management.
He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering from the University of South Wales and began his career as an Assistant Mechanic intern at General Electric. He then gained further industry experience as a Powerplant Engineer at TES Aviation Group and Royal Aero GmbH, where he worked across maintenance services, asset management, and OWS. His depth of knowledge and hands-on experience have been instrumental in his success at AJW, where he is highly valued for his technical expertise and strategic insight.
