Rotortrade completes H125 sale to Aeromot
Originally based in the Middle East, a 2020 Airbus H125 is undergoing final preparations ahead of entering service in Brazil.
The transaction reflects Rotortrade’s growing footprint in South America.

Rotortrade has sold a 2020 Airbus H125 utility helicopter to Brazilian aerospace and defence company Aeromot, a transaction that marks the start of a strategic relationship and reflects Rotortrade’s growing footprint in South America. Originally based in the Middle East, the aircraft is currently undergoing final preparations and is expected to enter service with Aeromot in the coming weeks.

“We are delighted to support Aeromot with this latest asset and to provide it visibility on our global helicopter portfolio,” says Raymond Lubrano, head of region Latin America at Rotortrade. “This collaboration enables us to offer flexible fleet solutions that support Aeromot's growth and serve its clients with agility and confidence. We conducted comprehensive inspections and a thorough review of all maintenance and airworthiness documentation to ensure full conformity with operational requirements. All cross-border procedures, including customs clearance and transportation planning, were meticulously coordinated to facilitate a streamlined and secure transfer of the aircraft."

“This acquisition reflects our commitment to continuously strengthening our value offer to customers with reliable, mission-ready aircraft,” adds Aeromot CSO Leonardo Andrade. “We look forward to putting this aircraft into service and exploring future opportunities together.”

The deal underscores Rotortrade’s ongoing efforts to support helicopter operators across Latin America with quality aircraft and professional services.
