Vector Financial Services Offers AS 332L Lease and By-The-Hour Support Solution

Las Vegas - Vector Aerospace Financial Services Ireland Limited introduces a new solution for the medium- to heavy-lift market with its fleet of customized AS332L aircraft, complemented by a new leasing and by-the-hour support offering for operators targeting the UN, NATO and EU markets.

"Our lease program gives customers the ability to operate a Super Puma AS332L helicopter – complete with a 'by-the-hour' parts support program – without the large capital investment associated with the outright purchase of either a second hand aircraft or the associated typical aircraft financial lease type obligations,” says Michael Tyrrell, managing director of Vector UK.

In March 2012, VFS purchased a fleet of Super Puma AS332Ls and tasked Vector Aerospace Helicopter Services Limited (HSNA) to develop a unique configuration package specifically designed to meet the performance and reliability specifications of the utility operator. This modification program includes the removal of dedicated offshore equipment and the upgrade/retrofit of modern technology to provide a much-needed solution to the medium lift helicopter market.

This lighter-weight, modernized aircraft combines the traditional reliability of the Super Puma AS332L with the operational enhancements that come from new features such as cockpit voice/flight data recorder and night vision goggles. Both features are new HSNA-developed FAA STCs .
