Aircraft Restoration

Air Leasing was founded by design engineer Nick Grace in 1984 who was prolific in the early years of increased interest in WWII era aircraft. Nick rebuilt and flew numerous aircraft including Spitfire IX ML407 and Hispano Buchon G-BOML.

This family tradition has been continued by his son Richard who has developed Air Leasing into a commercial business since 2007 specialising in the restoration and maintenance of all vintage piston types of aircraft.

Whatever your restoration needs Air Leasing can help and with our CAA and EASA approved workshop facility we can offer a bespoke service throughout the entire process.

We have completed various restorations on different types including Supermarine Seafire LF III G-BUAR, which first flew in 2015 and have numerous exciting projects underway. Please visit our “current projects” section to see what we are currently up to.
