Gama Aviation has announced a significant boost to its rotary-wing maintenance offering with the addition of Airbus H145 maintenance approvals at its Gloucester Airport (Staverton) facility.

This milestone reflects a key advancement in the company’s continued investment in rotary aviation support services, reinforcing its capacity to serve VIP, utility, and air ambulance operators across the UK.

Just over a year since acquiring the site, Gama Aviation has successfully developed its Staverton facility into a fully integrated rotary maintenance hub. With the latest addition of Airbus H145 approvals, the site now provides comprehensive support for several of the most commonly operated platforms, including the Leonardo AW169 and AW139.

The Staverton facility now offers a wide array of services, including design & production (Part 21 J & G), maintenance (Part 145), component paint shop, with further expansion set for Q4 2025 as well as support from a nationwide mobile service team (MST).

These capabilities allow operators to streamline their maintenance needs – from routine inspections to major reconfigurations and the integration of mission-specific systems – all at a single, well-positioned location.
