Safran Helicopter Engines is proud to announce the signing of its first support contract in South Korea with Aero Peace. This 5Star Plans Business agreement will cover the Arriel 1D1 engine powering Aero Peace’s AS350B2. The contract has been announced during Rotorcraft Asia in Singapore, in the presence of Bruno Even, Chief Executive Officer of Safran Helicopter Engines and Mr. Hanbaek Kim, Business Development Director of Aero Peace. 5Star Plans contracts have already been signed in Spain, Norway and United States. Aero Peace’s contract is the first one finalized in Asia.

5Star Plans is a new Safran Helicopter Engines support contract designed for customers operating up to five helicopters. It offers five different levels of service covering scheduled and unscheduled events, standard exchange, preferential engine pool access, warranty extension and (depending on customer profile and mission types) by-the-hour support.

Bruno Even commented: “This contract takes our commercial relationship with Aero Peace to greater heights. We appreciate their confidence in our program and look forward to supporting them in over the years ahead.” Mr. Kim said: “5Star Plans is perfectly tailored to supporting our missions and we are confident that Safran will meet our requirements”.

For the last four years, Aero Peace has been a level 1 & 2 Safran Certified Maintenance Center (CMC) for Arriel 1E2, 1D1, 2S1 and 2S2 engines to support civil customers in South Korea.
