ROME (Italy) – THC (The Helicopter Company) and Leonardo are further reinforcing

AW139 intermediate twin engine aircraft for emergency medical service (EMS) and
corporate transport missions across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Deliveries
commence to start this year and shall be completed within the following three
years. These aircraft add to THC’s existing AW139 fleet of seven helicopters.
Six additional units may follow in the future expansion.
 

> 16 firm and 6 optional AW139s will be introduced into service for EMS and
> corporate transport

Gian Piero Cutillo, MD Leonardo Helicopters, said “We’re extremely pleased to
build on the outstanding collaboration developed over years with THC

helicopters. We look forward to supporting our partner to deliver an even
greater level of effective and safe passenger transport and emergency response
missions across their country.”

“We are really excited to expand significantly our Leonardo fleet with this new
order. The AW139 is certainly one of the most reliable platforms in the industry
and the “best in class” transportation in this category. We are also delighted
to re-emphasize our partnership with Leonardo a historic partner of THC, to
develop new capabilities and services across the full rotary ecosystem in the
kingdom of Saudi Arabia” Said by Captain Arnaud Martinez, CEO of The Helicopter
