Day Two, HeliExpo Las Vegas

Sikorsky S92 in the Shetlands

Day two starts with a Sikorsky briefing on the state of the commercial market, and their place in it.

It then moves on to some further Eurocopter developments.

Bristow Helicopters, shown here on a oil rig off the Shetlands in Scotland, has kept both companies happy with more S92 purchases and becoming the launch customer for the EC175, see below. That is a huge machine.

Also, on Day Two I have an interview with Emmanuel Dupuy, MD of HeliAsset in Paris. This company started in 2011 as a spin off from Regourd Aviation. They have leases and franchises on pre-owned helicopters. They are open 24 hours a day, so if you need a heli in a hurry you know where to go.
