Nextant Pacific announces B400 Nextant aeromedical sale in Asia Pacific region

Nextant Pacific Pty Ltd, one of the Asia Pacific's most innovative and resourceful new aircraft sales and acquisitions companies announced today the sale of a dedicated air ambulance in Australia. The Nextant 400XT was acquired for the Australian aeromedical charity CareFlight Ltd and will be based in Darwin, Australia. It will join the already substantial air ambulance fleet operated by CareFlight. The deal demonstrates the significant interest in aeromedical operations seen at the Singapore Airshow and Nextant Pacific's continued focus on the quick-change vip/air ambulance version of the Nextant 400XTi.

“The aeromedical business is a key focus area for Nextant Pacific, and we are delighted that CareFlight chose to partner with us for their important work in the Northern Territory,” said Nextant Pacific managing director, John Oppenheim. “Nextant 400 Series aircraft combine the door size, speed and range of a mid-size jet with the operating costs of a comparable turboprop. It is an ideal platform for aeromedical work”, continued Oppenheim.

“The addition of this airplane to our fleet will greatly enhance our capability in the North domestically and internationally into Asia. The increased range of the Nextant, state-of-the- art avionics and competitive operating cost make it a welcome addition to our fleet,” added CareFlight general manager, Paul Smith. “We have counted on John Oppenheim's market knowledge in the past to assist with acquisitions and are pleased to again work with him at Nextant Pacific. We have an ongoing relationship with Nextant Pacific that supports CareFlight's mission to lead the aeromedical industry.”
