Why visit ACE ’25?
Global Medical Response has taken out 11 aircraft leases with long-time Tokyo-based partner ITC-AeroLeasing.
The leases include multiple Bell 407, Airbus H125 and Pilatus PC-12 aircraft to be operated by its operating companies: Air Evac Lifeteam, Guardian Flight, Med-Trans Corporation and REACH Air Medical Services. The variety of models involved in these transactions reflects the various performance requirements needed to deliver a diverse range of patient care and transportation services across the US.
The Bell 407 is a popular model in EMS, in operation since 1996. Built to land quickly in challenging conditions, the bi-fold doors make loading patients faster and easier. Bell also offers HEMS kit platforms via various vendors.
The Airbus Helicopters H125 offers a cabin with multiple medical kit options adaptable to an operator’s specific needs, along with outstanding performance.
The PC-12 is one of the best ambulance aircraft, not only for its low operating costs but also for its unique ability to operate in and out of unpaved runways. The pressurised cabin offers enough space for up to three patients and medical equipment, and the large cargo door allows for easy loading and unloading. The cabin can easily be reconfigured to fit a wide variety of mission profiles, for maximum operator flexibility.
ITC-AeroLeasing CEO Mirika Nakayama says: “We are proud to support Global Medical Response in its continuous efforts to deliver pre-hospital solutions across the United States. Since 1989, ITC has been committed to supporting EMS operators, and we look forward to continuing to help operators fund the most suitable aircraft for their customers.”
