UK-based private aviation specialist Volare Aviation has officially opened a dedicated helicopter maintenance, management and refurbishment facility at its London Oxford Airport home. With 16,000 sq ft of space, the new facility will allow the company to work on up to 12 twin-engined executive helicopters at the same time.
“Opening this new helicopter facility enables us to deliver one of the most comprehensive services on the market to helicopter owners,” said Volare’s founder and chairman, Dustin Dryden. “From this fully accredited facility, with international approvals including EASA, UK CAA and US FAA, we have the ability to purchase, refurbish, manage and maintain owners’ helicopters all under one roof – from one location.
“It’s also a pleasure to continue our long-term partnership with London Oxford Airport, now in its ninth year, as we expand our facilities hand in hand with the airport’s growth and this pent-up demand for on-demand, private aviation.”
Founded in 2013, Volare offers sales, charter, management, engineering and refurbishment services for private jets and helicopters. On the rotary-wing side, it has expertise in interior and exterior work on pre-owned Leonardo, Airbus and Sikorsky models. Its helicopter MRO services are delivered by five full-time licensed engineers.
