MD Helicopters has been a Lynn Tilton company for 10 years. “When I acquired the company in 2005, I don’t think anyone believed this iconic American brand could rise again, yet we stand today stronger and better prepared than we have ever been for a future of innovation, expansion and growth," she said.

But it is a fact, and this was the theme of the Mesa, Ariz. company’s press conference on Tuesday here at Heli-Expo 2015.
