Lease Corporation International (LCI), the aviation division of the Libra Group, has expanded its longstanding relationship with Weststar Aviation Services with the recent delivery of two additional helicopters on operating leases in Malaysia.
Weststar, one of the global leaders in offshore helicopter aviation services, has recently taken delivery of two helicopters – one Leonardo AW139 and one AW189 – which enter service alongside an existing AW189 from LCI already in operation in its fleet.
The newly delivered aircraft will be used to support Weststar’s offshore helicopter operations in Kerteh and Miri in Malaysia.
LCI has partnered with Weststar since June 2013, when it delivered the first two AW139s for Weststar’s international operations.
LCI’s fleet, which comprises approximately US$1 billion of assets in service, on order and under management, is focused on the latest technology light-twin, medium and super medium helicopters manufactured by the leading helicopter OEMs, including Leonardo, Airbus and Sikorsky.
