Recently-launched Toronto-based aircraft sales firm Aero Asset, co-founded by Emmanuel Dupuy, William Sturm and Valerie Pereira, has signed four exclusive remarketing agreements: a 2007 Airbus AS365 N3, a 2007 H155, a 2009 Sikorsky S76C++ and a 2002 AW109E.

“Signing listings so early after the launch underlines the confidence owners have in our expertise and network,” says sales director Emmanuel Dupuy.

At HAI Heli-Expo, Aero Asset presented its 2018 Pre-owned Heli Market Trends based on its proprietary intelligence and market research. Focusing exclusively on the twin-engined preowned helicopter market, the report, which will be published bi-annually, ranks the best and worst markets and aggregates 2018 helicopter trading intelligence versus the previous year.

Stuart Burrows, VP of business development at DC Aviation, is keen to endorse the fledgling company: “As we continue to become a more powerful international presence in business jet management, we welcome Aero Asset's expertise to handle new and pre-owned rotor transactions for our operations in Switzerland and Germany. We look forward to continuing our strong working relationship with the team and greatly value their support as we continue to expand our helicopter activity.”

Commercial director of Starspeed Gary Butcher adds: “We trusted the team to represent our best interests on both sides of the transaction process, buying and selling helicopters. They delivered on-time and offered superb client service and support. As one of the oldest and trusted corporate and VIP helicopter management and charter operations in Europe, we relied on Aero Asset's excellent reputation in the helicopter brokerage industry to assist us in our growth as a VIP helicopter provider.”
