LAS VEGAS, -- NBAA -- Associated Aircraft Group (AAG) announced today it is accepting deposits for the Sikorsky S-76D(TM) helicopter in Sikorsky Shares, the Sikorsky fractional ownership program. The S-76D helicopter is a highly advanced and much anticipated new model for executive transport and other missions. AAG is a subsidiary of Sikorsky Aircraft Corp., which is part of United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX).
The aircraft features industry-leading technologies, including de-icing so that the S-76D helicopter can be flown during unpredictable winter weather. Its advanced main rotor blade design and new Pratt & Whitney engines enhance performance and efficiency. The S-76D helicopter also is equipped with Active Vibration Control and Quiet Zone technology to ensure the smoothest and quietest ride available in the executive helicopter class.
"The legendary S-76® helicopter has long been recognized as the premier executive helicopter and is the foundation of the Sikorsky Shares fractional fleet. The S-76D takes a proven performer and adds state-of-the-art avionics and engine technologies to make it today's most modern VIP and executive helicopter," said Scott Ashton, AAG president. "The Sikorsky Shares program allows our clients to enjoy all the benefits of the new S-76D helicopter, backed by AAG's extensive operating expertise for a truly unique ownership experience."
AAG has more than 20 years of experience providing helicopter and fixed wing charter flights, fractional ownership and helicopter maintenance services from its New York and Philadelphia installations. It is the only executive helicopter company to own and operate its own Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Part 145 maintenance facility and is a Sikorsky Certified Repair Center. AAG has the Northeast's largest fleet of S-76 aircraft.
