Titan Aviation Fuels subsidiary Titan Aerospace Insurance (TAI) has expanded its U.S. West Coast coverage with the acquisition of California-based aviation insurance provider Ouzel Services. As part of the transaction, Ouzel founder Erik Everson has joined the TAI team, bringing extensive experience in aviation operations, insurance strategy, and client-focused risk management solutions.
A third-generation pilot, as well as a former A&P mechanic apprentice and line service technician, Everson previously co-founded Jefferson Aviation Insurance Solutions, where he specialized in helping aviation clients navigate complex insurance renewals, coverage strategies, and risk management solutions.
In addition to his aviation insurance background, Everson has served as a commercial insurance broker with Jefferson Financial & Insurance Services, advising business owners on comprehensive insurance programs and tailored coverage strategies.
“The acquisition of Ouzel Services and addition of Erik to our team represents another exciting step in TAI’s continued growth,” said Titan Aerospace Insurance CEO Jon Downey. “Erik’s operational aviation background, insurance expertise, and relationship-driven approach align perfectly with the values and service commitment we bring to our clients across the aviation industry.”
