Eurocopter Chile Hands Over The Helo To Multi-Faceted Company

This new model joins the helicopter fleet at Servicios Aereos Kipreos, which specializes in high-precision aerial work, and has included the Ecureuil AS350 B2 version since 2005.

Eurocopter's AS350 B3e is one of the new and enhanced helicopter versions unveiled by the company in 2011. "I am delighted to deliver this latest version of one of our most renowned rotary-wing aircraft," said Alexandre Ceccacci, CEO of Eurocopter Chile S.A. "Eurocopter has introduced this new generation of helicopters to meet our customers' growing needs, such as those in Chile - who operate in an increasingly demanding environment."

Servicios Aereos Kipreos has carried out aerial operations for the design and construction of electrical systems since the company's origins. Among other aerial services, it performs work on power transmission lines in high-altitude mountainous areas, and is one of the few operators able to carry out the construction and maintenance of high voltage lines in Chile.

"In light of the growing market for precision aerial work, we needed a multi-mission helicopter that can deal with all types of situations and the exacting demands of these operations," said Jose de la Fuente, the CEO of Servicios Aereos Kipreos S.A., in speaking to the company's partners, customers and employees - as well as representatives of the Chilean Helicopter Association.

The company's new AS350 B3e, to be based in Santiago, will be used for power line work, along with various other missions, such as passenger transport, mining support, airborne laser terrain mapping, heli-skiing, load transportation, filming and fire fighting activities.
