Search:Enstrom receives Korean and Brazilian certificationMenominee, Michigan, January 9 , 2006 - Enstrom Helicopter Corporation has received Korean certification for its full product line and added the 480B certification to its Brazilian ticket. Earlier this month the Republic of Korea, Civil Aviation Safety Authority awarded Enstrom a type certificate for the 280FX, F28F and the 480B. Late in 2005 the Brazilian authorities added the 480B to the existing type certificate for earlier turbine models and the piston aircraft.
"Enstrom has been very successful in opening new territories this year which drives our need to obtain the proper certification." said Jerry Mullins, President and CEO. This accomplishment follows a recent delivery of an Enstrom 280FX and a 480B to Hanseo University in Korea and a 480B to Bringer Corporation of Brazil.
Enstrom is now certified in over 30 countries and, with the increase in new countries being interested in our aircraft, I would assume our certification efforts will increase again in 2006.” said William Taylor, Director of Engineering.
