DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, April 27, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Moving into the second quarter of 2026, Mente Group has the momentum from a record breaking 2025, with more than $1 billion in aircraft transactions, to execute another record year.

We’re grateful to our clients, partners, and team for their roles in this success,” he added.
