New finance plan for AHI helos

Airbus Helicopters Inc. announced that Government Capital Corp. will provide tax-exempt financing for mission equipment technology upgrades and major maintenance for law enforcement and government-owned Columbus, Miss.-built AS350 helicopters. Additionally, Precision Aviation Services of Peachtree City, Ga., AHI's newest service center, will work with public agencies to provide aircraft systems and avionics upgrades, conduct AS350 12-year airframe inspections and install new mission equipment to enhance performances of older helicopters in use. The new financing program allows a law enforcement agency the simplicity of bundling their needs into one tax-exempt financing agreement … to spread payments over a period of time, creating affordability and maintaining the critical services performed by the agency," said DC Greer, VP of Government Capital. Built and certified at AHI-Columbus, this cost-effective helicopter offers modern safety features, high cruise speed and range, and the ability to conduct a wide range of missions. AHI is the market leader in sales of new helicopters to federal, state and local law enforcement agencies over the last decade. AHI will display an Oklahoma Department of Public Safety AS350B3e at the Airborne Law Enforcement Association Conference in Phoenix, Ariz., from July 16-19. (Source: PR News Wire, 07/11/14)
