This new fixture and tailboom will minimize their downtime and let them continue operations virtually uninterrupted.”

Used for a wide range of applications including VIP transport, emergency medical service, search-and-rescue, offshore OGP support, fire fighting, law enforcement, paramilitary and military roles, the AgustaWestland AW139 is a 15-seat medium sized twin-turbine helicopter used by government, military and civilian operators in 32 countries worldwide.
