Nakanihon Air is the first P180 Avanti operator in Japan, reflecting its commitment to fleet modernisation and service expansion. Nakanihon Air operates a fleet of 57 helicopters and seven fixed-wing aircraft.

The aircraft will operate in shuttle and ambulance configuration. The deal confirms the continued appeal of the Avanti EVO’s unique combination of speed, efficiency and operational flexibility.

In addition to being quiet and environmentally conscious, the EVO features upgraded onboard systems, a widened door for cargo and medevac, and an additional fuel tank for extended range and mission flexibility.
