Transparency throughout the maintenance process is central to the company's long-term customer partnerships.

Duncan Aviation has been ranked #160 on the 2026 Forbes Most Trusted Companies list, reflecting the confidence customers place in its transparent and reliable approach to aircraft services.

Published annually, the Forbes Most Trusted Companies list recognises organisations that consistently earn trust through ethical practices, strong performance, positive customer experiences and employee engagement. For aircraft owners and operators, the ranking reinforced dependable communication, uncompromising safety standards and work completed correctly the first time.

“This recognition reflects the culture our employees create every day,” says Todd Duncan, chairman of Duncan. “Trust is foundational in business aviation, where safety, quality and integrity are non-negotiable. Our team's commitment to doing the right thing on every aircraft on every project is what earns the confidence of our customers.”

The company positions trust as inseparable from quality and safety. Operating across aircraft maintenance, repair, overhaul and completions, Duncan works in an environment where regulatory compliance attention to detail and craftsmanship remain critical. Customers depend on the company for technical expertise as well as transparency throughout the maintenance process and long-term partnership.

“Our customers expect consistency, honesty and follow-through,” says Mike Minchow, president of Duncan. “That's why we focus on how the work is done, not just the final result. Every team member understands that trust is earned through daily action; meeting commitments communicating clearly and delivering safe high-quality work. Being named to the Forbes Most Trusted Companies list reinforces the standards our customers expect and deserve.”
