Indaer International Responds To Growing Interest For Series
400 In Latin America
Viking Air of Victoria, BC, Canada has appointed Indaer
International as its sales representative for the new production
Series 400 Twin Otter and legacy Twin Otter aircraft in Colombia.
Indaer was selected for its presence in the country with offices in
Bogota and Medellin, as well as its strong reputation in the Latin
American aviation industry, and its extensive knowledge of the Twin
Otter.

The Twin Otter's outstanding airfield performance, durable
airframe and low operating costs make it ideal for service to
smaller airports in this rugged, mountainous country. Legacy
versions of the aircraft have been in continuous service with
airlines and other operators in Colombia since 1975 and interest in
Viking's new Series 400 Twin Otter is high.
"Many of our customers see the Twin Otter as the ideal aircraft
for operation in the remote jungle and mountainous areas of
Colombia," said Calvin Tuitt, Indaer's director of North American
and Caribbean sales. "We're proud to be working with Viking
to introduce new Series 400 aircraft to the Colombian market."
Indaer International is an aerospace, engineering and technical
services company that was created as a successor to ACES, a South
American regional airline with a history of Airbus, Boeing, ATR and
Twin Otter operations.
Indaer says it employs 45 full-time engineers, technicians and
systems analysts who provide start-up and lease transition
assistance; technical training; maintenance planning and oversight;
in-service engineering; and field support for airlines and aircraft
owners. The company has hangar facilities in Bogota and
Medellin, Colombia, engineering offices in Colombia and Brazil, and
sales offices in Canada and Switzerland. In 2009 Indaer
supported customers from 11 countries in North and South America,
Europe and Asia.
