The Heli-One S-92 centre of excellence has strong support from Sikorsky, and from aircraft lessor Milestone, an AerCap company, which owns 17 of the approximately 40 S-92s operating in the South America region.

Two five-year agreements will provide multiple services across AW139 and AW189 fleets operating in multiple global regions.

The tripartite initiative will focus on providing fleet support and mission readiness enhancements for South American rescue and recovery operators.
