Marenco Swisshelicopter is proud to announce the first sale of the SKYe SH09 in Africa to Henley Air Pty Ltd. This South African letter of intent brings the order book of MSH to a total of 60x units.

At Henley Air, what started out in 1995 as a dream has today grown into a major operation at Rand Airport, Johannesburg. In the early years the fleet was composed of one Bell Jet Ranger. Today ceo André Coetzee and his team provide their clients with a variety of single and multi-engine aircraft to meet the diverse requirements of the market ranging from passenger transport, commercial, utility and private charter as well as helicopter training.

André Coetzee, chief executive officer of Henley Air commented “We believe the aircraft will offer the perfect performance levels to tackle the extreme environments of the region and it will give us the ability to build new services when considering the versatility of the aircraft and the large cabin it offers.”

Mathias Senes, chief commercial officer of Marenco Swisshelicopter stated “We are very proud that a renowned and professional operator has decided to add the SKYe SH09 as a future helicopter in their fleet, not to mention the Swiss origins of Henley Air, which bring us a little closer.”
