Sikorsky Global Helicopters has just dropped off a set of keys to AirVenture Flight Center, during the opeing day of Heli Expo, for Serial #0352, a S-300CBi model helicopter. The aircraft marks the first helicopter for AirVenture Flight Center to begin its helicopter training fleet.

"We are looking forward to building our relationship with AirVenture Flight Center," said David Horton, General Manager of Sikorsky Global Helicopter's Light Helicopter Division, located in Horseheads, N.Y. Ken Hammerton, owner of AirVenture Flight Center, was present at the ceremony and joined Horton in a toast to the partnership.

It is one of the top flight training centers in the mid-South. AirVenture also offers a variety of other services including air charter, aircraft rental, and a full line of interactive flight training kits and other training supplies.

The S-300CBi helicopter operates throughout the world primarily as a training helicopter.
