Brazil's Federal Highway Police (PRF) has ordered four Grand Caravan EX aircraft from TAM Aviacao Executiva, the exclusive sales representative of Cessna in Brazil.

PRF has previously acquired other aircraft through TAM AE and has in its fleet the Grand Caravan turboprop and the Bell 412 helicopter, in addition to the Bell 407 helicopter, of which it is one of the largest operators in Brazil. When the four new Grand Caravan EX aircraft are delivered, PRF will also consolidate itself as one of the largest Caravan operators in Brazil.

"For us, it is a huge satisfaction to close this deal with PRF. We know that the choice for our product was made after a careful analysis, which involves several factors and attests to the quality and versatility of the Caravan," says TAM president Leonardo Fiuza. "Federal Highway Police missions are complex. Providing solutions that meet these demands is a very important endorsement."
