Toll Group's aviation business has signed a deal with Rotortrade for two Leonardo AW139 helicopters to be used for current contracted operations in Australia.

The agreement was concluded just ahead of the Rotortech event on the Gold Coast, one of the region's leading rotorcraft industry gatherings bringing together operators, OEMs and service providers from across Australasia. This timing highlights the continued momentum of Rotortrade's activities in the Australian market and its strong relationship with key operators in the region.

As part of the transaction, both aircraft will undergo their four-year inspection at Rotortrade's MRO facility in Tallard, France, ensuring they are delivered in full compliance with the highest operational and safety standards required for contracted operations.

Toll Aviation, part of Toll Group and a key player in Australia's aviation landscape, provides specialised aviation operational and training services across the emergency response, government and defence sectors. With a focus on safety, operational excellence and innovation, Toll Group continues to invest in fleet modernisation.

Aurélien Blanc, Rotortrade executive vice president and head of region APAC/MEA comments: “We are very proud to further strengthen our relationship with Toll Group through this agreement. Through this project, we are combining our technical capabilities with Toll's operational expertise to support its clients' objectives.”

Marcello Corrado Salati, Rotortrade deputy head of region and regional sales director APAC, adds: “Working with the Toll team has been very straightforward. They bring a high level of experience and a clear, pragmatic approach, which makes discussions efficient and constructive. We are proud to support such a capable partner and to contribute to the essential work they carry out every day.”

Scott Watkins, senior vice president, Toll Aviation, concludes: “This agreement forms part of our continued investment in strengthening our AW139 capabilities across Australia. Securing these aircraft is an important step in ensuring we can meet both the operational requirements of our contracts and a growing demand. Rotortrade has been proactive and solutions-oriented, and we appreciate the collaborative approach taken by its team.”
