AgustaWestland secures more A139 orders in west Africa

AgustaWestland announced today four new orders for the AW139 in west French speaking Africa, with four undisclosed government customers recently choosing the best-selling intermediate helicopter for passenger transport roles.

These orders mark the continuing growth of AgustaWestland helicopters in the region, whose growing fleet will be soon supported by a brand new Authorized Service Centre. This approach will soon bring AgustaWestland services even closer to the numerous customers who will benefit from its maintenance and spare facilities.
