Bell Helicopter has signed a deal with UK-headquartered Avincis Group for a mixed order of 20 aircraft, comprising Bell 429s, 412s and 412EPIs.

The new helicopters will largely be used for the provision of emergency medical services.

“We’re delighted to be able to further develop our long-standing relationship with Bell Helicopter with the purchase of these aircraft, supported by their exceptional after-market service,” says James Drummond, chief executive of Avincis Group.

“These aircraft will help us to save more lives as we grow our global business,” he adds.
