Airbus Wins Several Helicopter Orders
By Mauro Orru
Airbus said it has received several helicopter orders from different buyers during this year's HAI Heli-Expo event in California.
The European aircraft manufacturer said late Wednesday that it had entered into a framework contract with Bristow Group for up to 15 H135 helicopters, with five firm orders initially and an option for another 10. Delivery of the first helicopter is scheduled for October.
Separately, Niagara Helicopters, the tourism company based in Niagara Falls, placed an order for six H130 helicopters.
The announcements come a day after Airbus said it has received separate helicopter orders from a company owned by Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund, a German helicopter emergency medical services operator and an aeromedical services operator in West Virginia.
