700th Exec 162E Sold

RotorWay International tells us that they just sold the 700th Exec 162F, yet another milestone for the world's oldest kit helicopter company. The aircraft went to a customer in Australia, one of the largest markets for the Exec 162E outside of the United States. In Australia, aside from the recreational flying that is common with this helicopter, it is also a choice for use in cattle mustering on ranches or "stations", as they are most commonly referred to.

Leading the push for the Australian market is RotorWay's representative, Kevin Lunn. "Australia is RotorWay country. What better place to have your own personal helicopter than the wilderness of the outback or on a large cattle station?" asks Lunn. "We're excited about the sales trends in this market and the potential for growth."

"The fact that 700 of this model have been sold testifies to the proven performance and endurance of this aircraft and it's continued popularity around the world, " says Brent Marshall/VP Sales for RotorWay International. "It's versatility for a variety of uses has opened up the international market to all sorts of possibilities."

The Exec 162E has been sold in over 50 countries around the world for use in everything from cattle mustering and forestry work to agricultural spraying and police surveillance. The most recent market to open up to RotorWay International and the Exec 162E has been China. According to Marshall, "we're excited about the potential of this market as they develop the experimental category and the general aviation market as a whole for their upwardly-mobile citizens."
