Fig Air orders Sikorky S-76D

by · September 26

Fig Air has signed an order for a Sikorsky S-76D helicopter.

The Toronto-based VIP and corporate helicopter operator will be the first Sikorsky S-76D operator in Canada.

“We are thrilled to be able to provide Fig Air with such a capable solution to meet their VIP service requirements.”

Charles Bouchard, chief executive for Lockheed Martin Canada and a former Royal Canadian Air Force helicopter pilot, said: “We are thrilled to be able to provide Fig Air with such a capable solution to meet their VIP service requirements. We welcomed Sikorsky to the Lockheed Martin family a year ago, and it is clear they are uniquely suited to provide a diverse range of helicopter solutions to meet Canada’s commercial and defence markets.”

Sikorsky has delivered more than 850 S-76 helicopters to customers globally since 1979.
