This contract marks the first Canadian order for the AW169 helicopter. A significant number of firm orders have already been logged worldwide for a range of applications. The AW169 helicopter program, which was unveiled at the Farnborough International Air Show in July 2010, is progressing as planned with the first flight scheduled in 2012 and certification with a range of mission equipment in 2015. Deliveries are expected to follow immediately after certification is obtained.

Lou Bartolotta, Executive Vice President Sales for North America, AgustaWestland said “We are pleased to sign this contract with Capitale Helicoptere for the  new AW169. This achievement demonstrates the enthusiastic response of the North American market to the first new generation helicopter introduced into this weight class in decades. Capitale Helicoptere, and other AW169 customers, will benefit from unprecedented levels of versatility, the latest navigation and mission technology and low operating costs.”
