Synergy Aerospace Signs A Contract For Ten AgustaWestland Helicopters
AgustaWestland is pleased to announce that Synergy Aerospace, a division of Synergy Group, has firmed up orders for the acquisition of ten helicopters including AW119 Ke, A109 Power, Grand and AW139 helicopters which will be delivered through the end of 2009. This latest contract is part of the framework of the multi-year contract and distribution agreement signed in July 2006 which agreed the acquisition of 56 helicopters. This latest order is additional to the eight helicopters already ordered by Synergy Aerospace last year.
The helicopters will be used primarily for VIP/Corporate and offshore transport. The helicopters will be produced at AgustaWestland's production facilities in Philadelphia, USA and Vergiate, Italy.
AgustaWestland's light twins are the leaders in the Brazilian helicopter market with about 45 helicopters now in service, representing a market share of over 60% of the light twin fleet, which is expected to exceed 65 helicopters by the end of 2008. This contract also represents a further success for the AW139 and the third major contract for the aircraft in South America.
AgustaWestland do Brasil, an AgustaWestland company, supports the Brazilian fleet through its Service Centre in Sao Paulo and through Ultra-Rev, an Authorised Service Centre in Rio de Janeiro. AgustaWestland Philadelphia is responsible for sales, assembly, customization and support of the A109 Power, Grand, AW139 and AW119 Ke product lines throughout the Americas.
