✨ FUN FACT FRIDAY! ✨ Our global fleet of around 220 aircraft includes 15 A109 Leonardo Helicopters 🚁 We are big fans of this aircraft, which we operate in both Spain and Italy. ❓But did you know the A109 is also known as the “Ferrari of the skies”? 👉 The A109 earned this nickname for two reasons: 1) ⚡ Speed: it’s incredibly fast, making it a reliable choice for urgent and efficient transportation. 2) 🏎 F1 Connection: a special model was built for Ferrari. This helicopter was used by the Maranello F1 team for transferring drivers and was a favourite of Michael Schumacher in the 2000s. Though that specific model is no longer operational, the legacy of the A109 continues to soar in our fleet.
