PRESS RELEASE – Tokyo, 9 September 2020<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nakanihon Air, one of Japan\u2019s largest helicopter operators, has ordered one H215 heavy helicopter to shore up its capabilities for utility and aerial work.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are looking forward to receiving Airbus\u2019 mission-proven H215 to support our wide-ranging activities in Japan,\u201d said Taku Shibata, President of Nakanihon Air. \u201cWe believe the H215 offers the enhanced precision and stability we require, which will not only boost mission readiness but will also build up our fleet capabilities. We are happy to further this partnership with the Airbus Helicopters team in Japan that understands our needs and has supported our operations for many years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently operating 45 Airbus helicopters, Nakanihon Air specialises in activities covering emergency medical services, electronic news gathering, as well as passenger and goods transportation in Japan. <\/strong>The air services company also runs an Airbus-approved maintenance centre for H135 helicopters, while major inspections of the operator\u2019s existing Super Puma fleet are performed at the manufacturer\u2019s Kobe maintenance facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are pleased to support Nakanihon Air\u2019s growing business. We thank our customer for their continued confidence in our long-lasting relationship as demonstrated by this first H215 order,\u201d said Guillaume Leprince, Managing Director of Airbus Helicopters in Japan. \u201cThanks to a 4-axis dual duplex digital autopilot system in an intuitive glass cockpit, the H215 provides enhanced mission efficiency and safety while simplifying crew workload. We are confident that it will be an asset to Nakanihon Air, offering the excellent performance they expect.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The twin-engine, heavy-lift H215 is a member of the Super Puma helicopter family, known for its high availability rate, performance, and competitive operating cost. Equipped with state-of-the-art technologies, the rotorcraft consists of two versions — one tailored for multi-role operations and the other for aerial work and utility missions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are currently 28 helicopters of the Super Puma family in Japan flown by civil operators, parapublic operators, and the Ministry of Defense for various search and rescue missions, coastguard operations, fire-fighting, as well as Private and Business Aviation and commercial air transport missions.\u00a0
