Aero Asset has recruited Vincent Dulbecco as senior sales director and François Millian as senior director, mission critical markets. Dulbecco will be based in Milan, Italy and Millian in Toronto, Canada.

"Aero Asset is delighted to bring two A-listers to its commercial team,” says president Emmanuel Dupuy. “Nothing replaces experience. Both started in the helicopter industry in the late 1990s and bring decades of helicopter expertise and network.”

Dulbecco started his aviation career in the French Gendarmerie Air Support Unit in 1998. He served in different roles at Leonardo Helicopters over a 13-year period, from flight test engineering to new helicopter sales manager for Africa to manager of Leonardo's preowned civil and military helicopter sales division.

Millian has been in the helicopter industry since 1999. Trained as a French Army pilot, he later became a flight instructor on heavy twin OGP helicopters and a training captain in a Canadian HEMS operation. He was head of operations of SAF Helicopters, a HEMS operator based in France. He is currently rated on eight types of multi-engine helicopters.
