Air Charter Service owner and founder, Chris Leach, will remain as chairman of the Board and will continue to guide the marketing strategy and business development of the group.
Leach said: “With a strengthened management team now in place, and a group of very capable personnel throughout the ACS group, the company is ideally set for the next phase of our carefully planned expansion.”
