Attendees can expect opportunities to connect with more than 15,000 industry professionals, representing more than 85 countries. VAI has also organized for more than 125 workshops and educational events to help keep attendees informed about the issues that will shape vertical aviation’s future.
Enstrom intends to bring a trio of helicopters to VERTICON, showcasing the best of Menominee helicopter innovation. Visitors to Enstrom’s booth at B5415 will be greeted by a new 480B with the Elite package installed, a 480B Army ship, and a brand-new 280FX piston helicopter.
Enstrom’s executive team will be in attendance with support from engineering, customer service, and purchasing. Representatives from Surack Enterprises, Enstrom Helicopter’s parent company, will also participate and be available for questions.
Enstrom President Adam Richardson said, “Last year, we debuted the 480B Elite, headlining our new lineup of 480B helicopters. We’ve got plenty more to share on that, but this year, we also have some amazing developments in the works that should excite our piston helicopter pilots.
Richardson and Senior Vice President of Product, Sales, and Customer Excellence Charles Wade will lead a press conference at 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 10 to share further details.
