Aeromaster Airways has deployed a Leonardo AW119Ke into service in Ecuador, expanding its capability across VIP transport, government operations, oil sector support and medevac missions.

The aircraft, previously operated by the South African Red Cross Air Mercy Service (AMS) in an EMS role, arrived in Quito in late October and has since entered service with Aeromaster.

The acquisition was supported by Rotortrade, which coordinated the full process from sourcing and inspection through to preparation, administrative handling and intercontinental delivery. Close alignment between all parties enabled a smooth transition from Africa to Latin America and a rapid entry into operations.

Roberto Damone, attorney in fact at Aeromaster Airways, says: “Rotortrade's combination of global reach and strong local expertise in Latin America makes it a reliable and solid partner for operators. We value its service-driven approach and look forward to continuing our collaboration on future opportunities.”
