Large Aircraft

DSG's Large Aircraft business offers experience gathered over several decades and provides customers with a complete service for the maintenance, repair and overhaul of the MOD's fleet of VC10 transport and air refuelling tanker aircraft.

The skilled staff combine operational experience and excellence with deep aircraft systems knowledge to provide a comprehensive, responsive service. Aircraft maintenance programmes range from small modification and repair tasks to major inspections with extensive structural and electrical modification.

We deliver a complete service that ranges from initial inspection through to the complete strip, repair, modification, component replacement, rebuild and test of the aircraft.
