Forbes was promoted to CCO of Titan in 2021. He has held multiple leadership roles in seventeen years, including in aviation leasing, legal and finance. He was CCO at FPG Amentum, executive manager of marketing at Goshawk and senior vice president of commercial negotiations at SMBC Aviation Capital.

Titan expanded its widebody freighter lease portfolio in January when it acquired a pair of 777Fs from Carlyle Aviation Partners.

The 777 production freighters (42033 and 42034) are on lease with Ethiopian Airlines, which began operating its third 767-300BDSF in September 2024 as part of a sale, conversion and leaseback arrangement with Titan.

Titan purchased its first 777-300ER in 2024 and is monitoring 777 conversion programs for potential investment.
