Falcon Aviation Center Will Handle S-76 Helicopter Care
Sikorsky Aerospace Services announced Tuesday that Falcon
Aviation Services will establish a Customer Support Center in Abu
Dhabi for S-76 helicopters. The facility will be the first S-76

helicopter charter and maintenance services based in Abu Dhabi,
United Arab Emirates (UAE), signed delivery position agreements for
four S-76D helicopters with Sikorsky Aircraft for VIP/Corporate
transport. The S-76D helicopter is the latest version of the
popular S-76 helicopter.
"Sikorsky Aircraft is experiencing significant growth in the
Middle East and the establishment of the Falcon Aviation Services
Customer Support Center furthers our commitment to customers around
the world," said Frank DiPasquale, Vice President, Business
Development, Sikorsky Aerospace Services. "The service center will
not only allow us to deliver the highest level of support to Falcon
Aviation Services, but will also provide support to other S-76
helicopter customers in the region."

rotary and fixed wing aircraft around the world. It offers its
military and commercial customers a full portfolio of support
services through its aftermarket companies, Derco Aerospace, Inc.,
