The Wicks Group, based in Washington, D.C., offers both legal and consulting services to clients with aviation interests across the globe. TWG’s consulting services include business planning, program management and operations support, financial analysis, manual development and review, and safety /technical assessments. Legal services encompass a wide range of regulatory, commercial, corporate, transactional, environmental, and immigration practice areas. TWG’s clients include foreign civil aviation authorities, the U.S. government, domestic and foreign airlines, airport authorities, airport management firms, aircraft manufacturers, aircraft operators, charter and management companies, repair stations, aviation support service providers, FBOs, freight transporters and forwarders, and others.
Unlike many aviation consulting firms, TWG has extensive experience in serving the BA/GA sector. This is important because, despite areas of similarity between BA/GA and the commercial/airline segment, the two are fundamentally different. Moreover, BA executives – understandably - are reflexively skeptical of what they might see as any “one size fits all” ideas coming from the airline sector, or from consultants or attorneys who they perceive to be “airline people.” As a result, it is critically important on any BA/GA-related project to employ professionals with true expertise in the BA/GA segment. TWG’s professionals are well-connected to key individuals and organizations in the BA/GA community and enjoy a strong, positive reputation and credibility in this community. At the same time, TWG’s experts can draw on similarly deep experience in the “traditional” airline and airports segments where it is relevant.
