In late March Eurocopter inaugurated the new Eurocopter España plant in Albacete, in east central Spain. The new plant will produce the rear fuselage sections–made from composite materials–of the EC 135. The plant will also house the final assembly line for EC 135s destined for the Spanish market, and it is involved in several Eurocopter military programs. The site provides 355,000 sq ft of covered production facilities.
