Marenco Swiss Helicopters Reports Continued Interest In The Aircraft

The order book for Marenco Swiss Helicopters' SKYe SH09 has reached 101 aircraft, according to the company.

The milestone was reached following the company's participation in HeliExpo 2017 in Dallas earlier this month. A contract for the 101st helicopter was signed at the event, the seventh for the company.

The MSH team has seen continued interest and strong motivation of the industry to get the latest testing and development news, and all are looking forward to beginning operations of the SKYe SH09 helicopter in their respective environments.

The additional orders taken in Dallas were signed with various owners and operators from four continents.

With the latest signatures for sales to undisclosed clients from Southern and Western USA, Chief Commercial Officer Mathias Senes said this team achievement confirmed what people say about Texas ... "everything is bigger." That held true for the Swiss-made Helicopter.

In preparation of the show, MSH ordered a special paint scheme for their display aircraft. The result was a dual livery bearing the colours of Air Zermatt and Alpinlift Helikopter, two of the Launch Customers of the Swiss SKYe SH09 helicopter.

Interest was extremely high for the 2.5 ton class multirole aircraft, with visitors gathering around the helicopter from the opening of the exhibition hall. Attendees paid particular attention to the aircraft's performance characteristics, its overall modernity and adaptability to its operating roles, which make the SH09 the next Generation helicopter platform, the company said.
