Customers on three continents have signed firm
contracts for the ACH130 Aston Martin Edition helicopter since its
launch earlier this year.
Launched in January, the aeronautical designers at
Airbus Corporate Helicopters (ACH) and the automotive designers at
Aston Martin worked closely together for over a year, marrying
ACH’s key values of excellence, quality and service with Aston
Martin’s commitment to beauty, handcrafting and automotive art to
bring a new level of aesthetics and rigorous attention to detail
to the single-engine helicopter market.
Frédéric Lemos,
Head of ACH, said, “We are delighted with the market reaction to
this superb new helicopter. These orders across the world, clearly
demonstrate the excitement generated by our collaboration with
Aston Martin.”
The first
example of the ACH130 Aston Martin Edition in Asia Pacific has been ordered
by an existing Airbus customer in New Zealand. It will be used
privately as well as on VIP charter operations.
In Latin
America the ACH130 Aston Martin Edition has just entered service
with an undisclosed VIP customer in Guatemala.
Most
recently, another undisclosed private customer in Canada has
ordered the third example which will be completed by skilled
craftsmen in the UK, where Airbus manages and engineers
the ACH130 Aston Martin Edition, before being delivered from the Airbus Customer
Centre in Fort Erie, Canada.
