AgustaWestland Sells Another Corporate VIP AW139 In North America

Undisclosed Customer Purchased The Aircraft

AgustaWestland has sold an AW139 intermediate twin-engine helicopter in VIP/corporate transport configuration for an undisclosed customer in North America. This latest contract continues the growing success of the AW139 for VIP transport mission in this key market, bringing the total number of aircraft sold in North America to 19.

The latest AW139 aircraft for this market will feature a highly customized passenger cabin interior. The cabin interior is designed to be easily reconfigured for different passenger loads.

AgustaWestland says the AW139 is proving a popular replacement for older designs in a VIP market, where safety, comfort and performance are the foremost considerations. The AW139 delivers best-in-class performance with a maximum cruise speed of 165 knots, a range in excess of 500 nm, endurance of 5 hours and superior hover performance. With its power reserve, the AW139 assures Category “A” (Class 1) performance from a helipad (elevated or at ground level) at maximum take-off weight.
