Milestone To Lease 11 Airbus H225s to Air Center Helos
Air
Center Helicopters (ACHI) is adding 11 Airbus H225s to its fleet from the
portfolio of helicopter lessor Milestone Aviation Group. The deal calls for
delivery of the heavy-class rotorcraft throughout 2021 and 2022.
Milestone,
a unit of GE Capital Aviation Services, said ACHI will primarily use the H225s
for utility, training, and transport missions for U.S. government contract
operations. The company worked closely with ACHI and Airbus Helicopters to
repurpose and transition the type for new missions that include vertical
replenishment—supplying seaborne vessels by helicopter—as well as casualty and
medical evacuations.
“The
strength of our long-term partnerships with Milestone Aviation and Airbus
Helicopters has been a key factor in the success of giving the H225 a new life
among heavy helicopters operated in non-O&G [oil and
gas] environments,” said ACHI CEO Rod Tinney. “With this new deal, we are
positioning ourselves for further growth and continued support of our customers
for years to come.”
