Content Body

Avinco (N4115) is celebrating its 15th anniversary, and 2018 also marks its 10th Heli-Expo appearance. After completing 24 helicopter transactions in 2017, Avinco moved a total asset value in excess of $35 million. Avinco’s subsidiary, Avinco Americas Corp., totaled seven transactions in 2017.


“About 50 percent of second hand helicopter transactions involve a U.S. customer and 40 percent of helicopters sold worldwide are sold and remain within the U.S. This is a critical market for us. We see huge opportunities in the U.S. EMS sector and the VIP segment is also very buoyant,” said François Gautier, the founder and CEO of Avinco.


Since its launch in 2003, Avinco has overseen more than 320 helicopter transactions and 140 commercial aircraft transactions. Avinco also offers sourcing and consultancy services and trades helicopters from its own portfolio. A 2015 AH145 is on display, and available for sale, this week at its Heli-Expo booth.


“This is a great opportunity to thank our customers for their continued trust and loyalty, and our staff for making this a unique, fun and exciting company delivering value to the market,” said Gautier.
