Transport Canada validated Enstrom Helicopter’s 480B turbine helicopter, joining other Enstrom models that have been approved for operations in the United States' northern neighbor, the Menominee, Michigan-based manufacturer announced. “A number of our customers have expressed a desire to operate 480Bs in Canada, and this new validation will allow them to do so under Canadian registration,” said Enstrom director of sales and marketing Dennis Martin.
