Brazil Certifies Viking Twin Otter Series 400

Aircraft Will Support Government Initiative To Connect Remote Areas

ANAC (Agencia Nacional de Aviacao Civil) has granted type certification to Viking Air Limited of Victoria, BC, Canada for the Series 400 Twin Otter in Brazil, adding to the list of twenty-nine countries now recognizing the type worldwide. The Certification was granted in October, and will help pave the way for the first ever Twin Otter to enter the Brazilian market.

With the recent focus by Brazil’s government to develop policies that foster regional air transport links to remote locations throughout the country, certification of the Twin Otter Series 400 by ANAC is an integral factor in moving forward within the rapidly expanding Brazilian market.

“The Series 400 Twin Otter is the perfect solution for the remote areas of Brazil as it can provide essential air transportation to areas lacking infrastructure development,” said David Caporali, Viking’s regional sales director for Latin America.

“The Series 400 platform is ideally suited for the harsh operating conditions that Brazil presents, and we are confident it will prove itself to be the aircraft of choice for commercial and government operations alike.”
