Tropic Ocean Airways, a Fort Lauderdale based operator serving the state of Florida and the islands of the Bahamas, has announced the purchase of their seventh aircraft continuing on a path of growth. Once delivered, Tropic Ocean Airways will have two wheeled Cessna Caravans and five amphibious Cessna aircraft.
The 2015 wheeled Cessna Grand Caravan EX is equipped with the most advanced technology in its class, including a new Garmin G1000 glass cockpit avionics suite, and a high powered Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-140 engine.
“The introduction of this additional wheeled Cessna Grand Caravan EX to our fleet is a key component of our plan to expand regional operations and deliver a first-class service that our guests can rely on,” said Tropic Ocean Airways Chief Executive Officer Rob Ceravolo.
