The H135 has proven itself to be a very capable helicopter at Bristow, both for missions offshore and overland. Hence the decision to sign up for five more, possibly 15, and with Arrius 2B2 engines from Safran.

The engines of the whole Pegaso fleet are now covered by SBH. Founded in 1981, the Mexican helicopter operator provides on and offshore helicopter support.

About 70 engines will be covered as part of a four-year support arrangement between Safran Helicopter Engines and CHC Helicopter. Centres in France, the US and Brazil will be involved in the MRO process.
