Quest is to take on sales of MD’s multi-mission family of helicopters in both countries. Quest will support India and China from sales offices in Bangalore and Beijing.
"We are delighted to have been appointed by MD Helicopters as their agent in China and India to complement our exclusive sales status role in the UAE for the MD product range," said Quest Aviation commercial director Mike Creed. "Both of these markets have vast potential, especially for special missions such as EMS and police applications and we look forward to selling these extraordinary helicopters to two of the fastest growing markets in Asia."
MD Helicopters' multi mission family - the 500, 600 and 902 Explorer series - all feature the unique and exclusive ‘NOTAR’ technology (no tail rotor), affording owner and operator pilots a completely safe and quiet operational solution, essential requirements for policing and EMS roles. This will be a very strong selling point in these safety conscious markets,” Creed said.
MD Helicopters, has announced plans to open an office in China next year.
"We are extremely satisfied with our new partner Quest Aviation Solutions and look forward to broadening our relationship with them beyond the UAE into India and China," said Perry Orr, MD Helicopters director for the Middle East and Africa.
