International broker Rotortrade reported at Heli-Expo having closed 30 sales during 2019, ranging from light to heavy helicopters outfitted in corporate, utility, firefighting, EMS, and SAR configurations. The total was “in line with our projections,” said managing partner Aurélien Blanc. The Singapore-based company also opened new offices in Melbourne, Australia; and Marseille, France last year.

 


Rotortrade also announced Air Greenland has taken delivery of an SAR-configured EC225 Super Puma, with a second EC225 set for delivery by June. The additions will help the operator “win the bidding of Greenland’s search and rescue contract,” set for renewal this summer, Rotortrade said.
