Fred North
There are many helicopter dealers around the world but very few have the global reach, level of service, 24/7 availability, amazing professionalism and the sense of client commitment RT has.
I have worked with so many worldwide throughout my career that I can say with confidence those guys are by far the best.
They do not pretend to please you, instead, giving you the real facts making things happen your way and in your timeline.
The only way to go if you ask me..."

GB Helicopters
GB Helicopters was tasked with sourcing a VIP helicopter. We looked on the open market and contacted several brokers.
When we contacted Rotortrade, we were looked after by a sales rep from RT France who instantly engaged with our needs.
Several solutions were put to us and we were able to fine tune our search to an excellent off-market machine. The whole buying process was made easy by having a dedciated professional
that worked hard for us to get exactly what we were looking for and handling everything and all issues for us. Visits to view and survey the aircraft were arranged eficiently and any
rectification works immediately picked up and investigated. The buying process was made very painless due to an excellent level of service provided by Rotortrade.

Rudolf Schider - Managing Director
Schider Helicopter Service S-H-S
I have been in the helicopter business for 28 years now and had bought a lot of used helicopters all over the world. The correct assessments of the
technical condition and the resulting value were always a challenge, because there were also different helicopter-types.
The right or serious business partner is very important and in recent years I have found a real good partner in Rotortrade.
In the meantime we had already carried out two really good deals and I would like to emphasize, that I can confirm my complete satisfaction
with both the quality and the price ultimately achieved! We will definitely plan and ultimately carry out further business with Rotortrade.
Sam Thompson - Pilot, Consultant
Surge Air
When we approached Rotortrade, we had already been in touch with several brokers but they were unable to source a satisfactory
machine to meet our specifications. Rotortrade very quickly identified a perfect match for us. During the inspection and purchase
process Rotortrade was pivotal in ensuring that some last minute issues were smoothly handled, preventing a delay in the purchase
and subsequent international delivery. We were very happy with the entire process and would thoroughly use or recommend Rotortrade
in future.

The Helicopter Company
Rotortrade Team, led by heavy experienced and dedicated owners and leaders have been a ‘game changer’ for The Helicopter Company.
The fleet ramp-up that THC is facing, absolutely not standard in the industry, in a challenging period such as the Covid-19 pandemic with all the associated logistic issues, would not be achievable without the full support of Rotortrade team.
Rotortrade is not only a recognised helicopter dealer but a key partner for THC. We appreciate their attention to detail and customer focused approach, always going the extra mile.
Rotortrade team, after having demonstrated many times their full commitment to our project, is part of the family now and THC welcome the opportunity to receive their full support to address the future objectives and challenges of the company.

Philip Markham - CMO
In August 2020, THC engaged Rotortrade to support an unprecedented program to introduce 10 new H125's into the THC fleet in 8 months.
Before the start, the program was faced with many challenges related to aggressive delivery schedules, first of type certification and a highly complex pre-delivery technical work-scope.
The successful delivery of the logistical program during the Covid-19 pandemic was in itself simply extraordinary. The pre-delivery program included post production reconfigurations on 10 helicopters across 5 MRO spread over 2 continents.
The RT and THC teams quickly developed a solution-focused and collaborative approach to the program. THC found the entire RT team to be technically competent, commercially astute and client focused. 3 essential elements to the success of any program of this magnitude. The commitment, capacity and capability of RT is unparalleled. They have been an critical success factor to THC's H125 program and we welcome the opportunity to work with them again.
