Paul Dillon appointed as CTO for Abelo

Abelo has appointed Paul Dillon to the role of Chief Technical Officer.

With over 20 years of aircraft maintenance and leasing experience in senior roles, including in companies like Nordic Aviation Capital, Paul’s expertise and knowledge in the regional aircraft space, as well as on all aspects of the air transport decarbonisation initiatives, are crucial as Abelo moves into an exciting new era of development and growth as a turbo-prop aircraft lessor.

Newly formed lessor Abelo was created by a merger between Elix Aviation and ADARE Aviation Capital earlier this year, and in July recently signed an agreement with ATR for 10 of its 72-600 aircraft.

Steve Gorman, Abelo’s Chief Executive commented; “we are delighted to have Paul onboard as his experience and knowledge in the sector are very relevant to us.”
