Brazilian fractional ownership growth
Article Abstract:
HeliSolutions, the first helicopter fractional ownership program in South America, is doubling the number of helicopters in its fleet. The popularity of helicopter transport stems from bad surface traffic congestion, no subway system, almost 18 million residents making around 10 million vehicle movements per day at a very slow pace and the proliferation of kidnapping and other crimes. HeliSolutions expects to add seven R44s and EC120s to its fleet by Apr 2001.
