Eurocopter Southern Africa rebrands as Airbus Helicopters Southern Africa

The Grand Central Airport-based business is a fully owned subsidiary of the Airbus Helicopters Group, itself a unit of the Airbus Group, which is listed on the Frankfurt, Paris and Madrid stock exchanges.
 
“In addition to aligning with the rest of the group, our new branding signifies our renewed ambition to continuously excel in safety, quality and customer satisfaction with our products, services and support,” explained AHZA CEO, Arnaud Montalvo.
 
AHZA’s main base is located at Grand Central, midway between Johannesburg and Pretoria in Gauteng Province. Its 4300m2 facility incorporates 16 helicopter bays, a logistics platform for spare part distribution, training centres for pilots and technicians, and a full design and support bureau. The company also operates a Super Puma AS332L1 Full Flight Simulator at OR Tambo Airport and has a satellite base at Cape Town International Airport and recently established a branch at Wilson Airport in Nairobi, Kenya.
