Alpha Star Aviation Services (Stand 1150) is here promoting its medevac services. The Riyadh, Saudi Arabia-based company is mostly known for its business in private jet management and operations. “We started medevac two years ago and it is time to position ourselves on the market,” CEO Salem Abaid Al Muzaini told AIN.
  
Alpha Star is the only operator in the country to offer such emergency medical services. The activity accounted for 800 flight hours last year. In total, Alpha Star flies an average 1,000 hours per year, Al Muzaini said. It operates Airbus ACJs, Gulfstreams, ATRs, Hawkers and Embraer Legacies.
