Volare Aviation, the private aviation company delivering aircraft sales, charter, aircraft management, engineering and refurbishment under one roof, has formally opened a dedicated helicopter maintenance, management and refurbishment facility in Hangar 14, Bay 2, at its London Oxford Airport home. Up to 12 twin-engine executive helicopters can be worked on simultaneously in the 16,000 ft² space. The business offers expertise in interior and exterior work on pre-owned Leonardo, Airbus and Sikorsky models – from leather stitching on seats through to paint work.
“Opening this new helicopter facility enables us to deliver one of the most comprehensive services on the market to helicopter owners,” said Volare Aviation founder and Chairman Dustin Dryden. “From this fully accredited facility, with international approvals including EASA, UK and US FAA, we have the ability to purchase, refurbish, manage and maintain owners’ helicopters all under one roof – from one location.”
A significant part of London Oxford Airport’s ongoing strategic plan, in addition to investment in new hangarage, was the addition last year of seven new ICAO/EASA/CAA-compliant helipads.
